May 5, 2012 - Saturday, @ 8:30 AM Big Oaks Recreation Area Hwy 29 Hartwell, GA
"Best Dam Run" - Held Annually in Early May
Each year nearly 300 runners from the Hartwell, Ga., and Anderson, S.C., communities line up at the Hartwell Dam for the Annual "Best Dam Run". Held in partnership with the Corps of Engineers, the Hart County Running Club and the Hart County Chamber of Commerce, the event gives adults and children an opportunity to run 5-kilometer, 10-kilometer, or 1-mile routes along Hartwell Lake's scenic landscape.

     "The Best Dam Run is always a successful event at Hartwell Lake," said Zach Harkness, natural resources program manager, Hartwell Dam and Lake. "The Corps of Engineers coordinates landuse, parking, traffic control and prepping parks for the crowd, but at the same time we get to work with other community groups to encourage outdoor recreation and exercise."

     Come and enjoy the "Best Dam Run Anywhere." Sponsored by the Hart County Running Club & the Hart County Chamber of Commerce. Contact the Hart Chamber at (706) 376-8590 for more information or register online at http://www.active.com/running/hartwell-ga/33rd-annual-lake-hartwell-dam-run-5k10k1-mile-2011.
