The <a href="http://raceandroast.eventbrite.com/">Race &amp; Roast</a> at Oakland Plantation is a 5K trail run and oyster roast benefiting the <a href="http://www.mountpland.org/topic.asp?pid=1">Mount Pleasant Land Conservancy</a> (MPLC). You can participate in just one or both events. It all takes place at the same beautiful location in Mount Pleasant starting at 12:30 pm on Sunday, February 26th.

The inaugural 5K trail run will wind through the 132-acre forest at Oakland Plantation that is permanently preserved by a conservation easement held by the MPLC. The run will begin and finish under the avenue of oaks that lines the main drive to this seldom seen historic plantation.

Registered runners will receive a race t-shirt and one complimentary beer ticket for the post event. The Race will begin at 12:30 pm. Awards will be given out after the race to the top three finishers in each age category. Tickets to the Oyster Roast are an additional $15 for registered runners and $25 for anyone else.

The Oyster Roast is from 1pm - 4 pm on the picturesque lawn of the plantation house, and next to the start/finish line for the race. Oyster Roast tickets include live music, all-you-can-eat local oysters, Lowcountry cuisine, Palmetto Brewery beer, hay rides, kids' activities and more...all for a great cause. Children 12 years and younger are free.
