CAA Named Charity Partner for 2025 30A 10K Thanksgiving Day Races

The Cultural Arts Alliance (CAA) of Walton County is honored to be selected once again as a charity partner for the 2025 30A 10K Thanksgiving Day races, joining other benefiting organizations including Bailey Brigade, Children in Crisis, and The Point Washington Medical Clinic.

The 30A 10K is a 501(c)(3) event with a mission to raise funds for local non-profits while promoting the spirit of healthy living and gratitude as the community comes together to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday.

This year’s races will take place on Thursday, November 27, 2025, in downtown Rosemary Beach and will feature a 10K, 5K, and 1-mile fun run. Ranked among the Top 10 Thanksgiving Day races in America by both Southern Living Magazine and Active.com, the fast, flat, and scenic course is perfect for serious runners chasing a personal record or families looking to start a new, joy-filled holiday tradition. Registration is now open at 30A10K.com and a sell-out is expected.

As a charity partner, the CAA will receive a portion of race proceeds to support its Art For All grant program, which provides funding to teachers, students, artists, and arts organizations through a bi-annual application process. To date, the CAA has awarded more than $885,000 in grants to support arts education, creative projects, and artistic endeavors that have positively impacted hundreds of thousands of Walton County residents and visitors. This important work helps fulfill the CAA’s mission to foster creativity through the inclusive and collaborative advancement of the arts.

"We’re incredibly grateful to be chosen as a beneficiary of the 30A 10K once again," said Jennifer Steele, CAA President & CEO. "This event captures the best of our community — joy, connection, and generosity — all before most people have even had their first slice of pie. Whether you run, walk, or volunteer, you’re not just part of a race; you’re helping bring the Arts to life for thousands of people in Walton County."
