It's our 50th Anniversary!
Please join us to celebrate!

Sunday, June 28th (11:00am-3:00pm)

2026 marks the 50th anniversary of the Howard County Striders being a formal club. We're asking past and present members to come out and celebrate our club's history and running in Howard County. Please join us for a special annual picnic to celebrate our members, our current and former board members, our history, and all things that make the Striders a welcoming and supportive fitness community.

Picnic is open to members and non-members but we encourage you to join the club. 

Since this is our 50th Anniversary, there are a few things you should take note of: 

  • Different location from previous years' picnic. We are at a larger pavilion called Cedar Lane Park EAST. See address below. 
  • Larger pavilion has more parking, bathrooms, playground, basketball courts and soccer fields. So, please bring your family!
  • Food will be catered by local company: Farmhouse Greens.
  • Agenda includes our yearly business meeting and annual awards.
  • Recognition by Howard County Council and Howard County Executive's Office. Plus attendance by House Delegate Dr. Wu and representatives from the Columbia Association. 
  • 50th anniversary giveaway.
  • BIG surprise announcement. Hear it first at the picnic!
