Pier to Pier Run – April 11, 2015 – Jonnie Mercers Fishing Pier – Wrightsville Beach NC

This event is unlike any other: totally run on the beach at low tide. The event benefits The Wrightsville Beach Foundation (WBF).  WBF is formerly known as the WB Parks and Recreation Foundation. This non-profit organization was founded in 2005 when a group of WB Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee(WBPRAC) members and concerned residents identified a gap between park amenity needs and lack of town funding. The committee obtained non-profit status and started a membership and sponsorship drive with proceeds going towards improvement of the park equipment such as a new gazebo, picnic table and grills and a kayak for the Wrightsville Beach Elementary School.
