Let's get a Rotary Team together!

buckheadRUN!, Livable Buckhead’s sixth annual 5K, returns on Saturday, May 4. Once again, this year’s race is part of Buckhead Village District’s Bodacious Blooms festival, a four-day celebration of spring featuring larger-than-life floral installations and community-wide events.

Livable Buckhead is encouraging runners of all ages and abilities to join the fun and to bring their four-legged friends with them. In addition to awards for the fastest runners in various age groups, buckheadRUN! includes a “Fastest Fido” category, bandana giveaways for dogs, a pre-race hype event and post-race celebration. Runners are also encouraged to celebrate spring by dressing in flower-themed costumes and garb. Livable Buckhead will award prizes for the best flower costumes.

This year’s field of runners will follow a new USA Track and Field-certified course that begins at Lenox Square, follows PATH400 to Miami Circle then takes Piedmont Rd. and East Paces Ferry Rd. to Buckhead Village.

buckheadRUN! is a 2025 Peachtree Road Race qualifier.

buckheadRUN! registration is $35 for adults and $15 for children. Registration increases to $45 for adults and $25 for children after April 12. Awards will be given to the top male and female in eight divisions, and all registered runners will receive a commemorative t-shirt following the race. The “Fastest Fido” award will go to the fastest dog in the race.

Use code ROTARY10 for $10 off.

Join us for drinks and light fare while we visit our latest Signature Project, the Boyce Ansley School at 120 Ralph McGill Boulevard. This is a great opportunity to see the work that we have done to make the space more inviting for the students. See in-person the fabulous mural created by our own Anne Stuhler and meet some of the staff and faculty of this school which provides a stable learning environment for those experiencing housing insecurity.

Free parking is available in the deck behind the school.

If you are looking for a fun and easy way to give back - this is it!  Our annual fire rescue cookout serving the Buckhead Battalion is hosted jointly with Livable Buckhead and is guaranteed to be a good time.  Roles needed include setup, grilling, serving, interacting with the fire fighters and cleaning up. 

We have done this for many years now so we have it down to a science (except that one year we almost caused a fire)!   Come for as much or as little of it as you can.  Setup will begin at 11am and we will grill till everyone is served which is typically about 1:30. 

The date is changed due to the conflict with the International Convention

Check our Facebook page for the location and details. 

Join us at Boone’s, 2205 Northside Drive, Atlanta, Georgia 30305 (in the Bobby Jones Golf Clubhouse) from 5:00 to 8:00 pm on Sunday, June 23rd.  Free parking in the deck at the entrance to the golf facility.

No charge for Rotarians or guests, so a great opportunity to introduce your significant other or potential member to Rotary social events.
