Abbie's Adventure Race
Abbie’s Adventure Race is a fun spin on the typical 5K race! The race will consist of a 5K course with various mental, physical and fun challenges spread throughout. Walk or run, this race is for anyone looking for a unique and exciting way to participate in Homecoming events! So grab a partner, sign up and get ready for an adventure!
The 2024 race is sponsored by Abbie DeLoach Foundation.
While at GSU, Abbie joined the Kappa Delta Sorority, a legacy she shared with her mother. Her leadership skills shined amongst this lovely group of women as she was the Recommendation Chairman, a member of the homecoming step team, she played many intramural sports, and was on the championship intramural basketball team for Kappa Delta. She was a Junior in the Nursing program when her and 4 fellow nursing students were killed on their way to their last clinical rotation in Savannah. We hope you will join us in honoring Abbie’s legacy at the True Blue 5K.
