7th Annual Dogfish Dash

09/29/2013 at 09:00 AM
Location: Dogfish Head Craft Bewery
Address: #6 Cannery Village Center
Milton, DE 19968

The Dogfish Dash is a slightly off-centered 5K & 10K road race that starts and finishes at the Dogfish Head Craft Brewery (# 6 Cannery Village Center, Milton, DE 19968) and benefits the Delaware Chapter of The Nature Conservancy.

For 2013, we’re looking forward to hosting 1850 runners at our Milton, DE brewery on Sunday, September 29, 2013.

Aside from a surprisingly hilly coastal Delaware chip-timed race, the Dash includes tasty morsels, live entertainment, brewery tours, copious amounts of fun, and Dogfish Head beer. And let’s not forget the costume contest….remember that there are some awards for the best “recycled” costume (individual and team).

Since 2007 the Dogfish Dash has generated over $150,000 dollars for the Delaware Chapter of The Nature Conservancy.

  • 2012 – $38,500
  • 2011 – $33,500
  • 2010 – $26,000
  • 2009 – $25,000
  • 2008 – $20,000
  • 2007 – $10,000

During the 2012 Dogfish Dash, not only were we able to help raise funds to protect TNC lands; we were also able to reduce the entire footprint of the event. Here’s how…

  • Recycling– 423.78 pounds
  • Compost– 416.46 pounds
  • Trash– 46.3 pounds
  • Total 886.64 pounds
  • Overall Recycling Rate = 94.7%
