Oconee County Memorial Day 5K

Oconee County Memorial Day 5K Join us in downtown Walhalla for a meaningful Memorial Day weekend 5K that supports local veterans and honors those who served. This race is hosted by Golden Corner Veterans Support Group (GCVSG), a 501(c)(3) made up of members from Oconee County Emergency Services (OCES) in Walhalla, SC. GCVSG was established by OCES but is made up of volunteers from both OCES & OCVC. Proceeds benefit the Oconee County Veterans Council, Inc. (OCVC), a coalition of members from 10 veteran organizations and the Oconee Military Museum at Patriots Hall across Oconee County that meets quarterly at the VA Office in Walhalla. Funds raised by GCVSG are donated directly to the OCVC Relief Assistance Program (RAP), which provides evaluated relief assistance to Oconee County veterans in need.
