Countdown to Race Day:
The 23rd annual Smith Point Bridge 5K Run for Literacy will take place on Saturday, September 7th, 2024. The magnificent backdrop of the beautiful Atlantic Ocean and white sand beaches make this race a landmark event on the Long Island racing calendar.
Proceeds help support the Community Library’s Family Literacy Project, the William Floyd High School Scholarship Fund, and the Reach Out and Read program at the Sun River Health Center.
The William Floyd High School Scholarship Fund provides financial assistance to college bound students. Reach Out & Read promotes early literacy and school readiness in pediatric exam rooms by giving new books to families and advice to parents about the importance of reading aloud to their children.
The Smith Point Bridge 5k Run for Literacy is sanctioned by USATF-USA Track and Field Long Island.
Thank You

It is a huge pleasure to produce an event that showcases the beauty and pride of this community, and we are grateful to everyone who participates.
Sincerely, the 5K Bridge Run Race Committee
