Story

Old Fort is a community and area that is near and dear to my heart. Having spent almost five years of my life working in and around this area, I know the woods and trails of this area better than anywhere else in the world. It's been incredible to see the revitalization of Old Fort over the last few years, and also heartbreaking to see the devastation caused by Hurricane Helene. I'll be running this race with a goal of at least 26.2 miles. 

Help me in my effort to raise money for the Old Fort Strong Fund. This fund is dedicated to helping support community members in Old Fort who have lost their homes or had significant damage to their homes and will not receive any help to pay for rebuilding from insurance.  Due to the massive flooding that took place outside of historic flood zones, many homes did not have flood insurance to cover this cost.  In total 50+ homes were lost in McDowell County alone.  The goal is to raise $2,000,000 from this event alone to help in this cause.  All donations will go directly to helping those in need in our community.  

 

If you wish to make a donation by check or a large donation ($1,000+) via wire transfer, please email jason@campgrier.org for further details on how we can accommodate that request.
