About this Event
REGISTER FOR THE BLACK FRIDAY 5K HERE
Founded in 2010, Plastic Free Delaware (aka Zero Waste First State) is a community-based, nonprofit organization focused on making Delaware a better, cleaner, healthier place by reducing the use of single use plastic and encouraging zero waste practices. With the help of our tireless volunteer corps, we provide educational programs and undertake advocacy for policy changes at the federal, state level and local levels. In 2019 PFD founded YES!, the Youth Environmental Summit, for Delaware high school students and was attended by 500+ students from 34 high schools in 2024. In 2022, PFD launched the Delaware Community Composting Initiative to reduce food waste and encourage organics composting. Your participation in the Black Friday 5K helps PFD continue its educational reach with these and other programs, and helps keep Delaware’s schools, watersheds, and communities clean and healthy.
With the Black Friday 5K we choose to “opt outside” and be together for something fun during the holiday weekend while supporting a good cause! The event aims at being as green & sustainable as possible. Organics (think: banana peels and orange rinds) will be collected and composted. Please bring your own Reusable, Refillable water bottles for pre- and post- race hydration. Refill stations provided. All swag and awards will be reusable or sustainable.
