The Dormont Dash is a decades-long South Hills tradition, and one of the most challenging, hilly, and fun 5K races in the area! Presented by the Borough of Dormont Recreation Board, all proceeds raised from the 5K run and 1-mile fun run benefits the Keystone Oaks Education Association Memorial Scholarship Fund . The race begins and ends at the iconic Dormont Pool, and the course allows runners and walkers to enjoy the beauty of the park and the charming community of Dormont. All ages are welcome to participate so bring a friend, significant other, or the whole family to support a great cause!
