What a beautiful day for the Lighthouse 5K & Fun Run! The 39th annual event was hosted by the Junior Service League of St. Augustine (JSL). This group saved the Keepers’ House in the 1980s, and then asked the Coast Guard if they could also help preserve the St. Augustine Lighthouse, which they did by establishing a nonprofit organization — now the St. Augustine Lighthouse & Maritime Museum! The inaugural race in 1983 was originally titled the “Bud Light Twilight Lighthouse Run.” The Lighthouse 5K is a chipped race that serves as a qualifier for the famed Gate River Run. Thanks to the community for helping to support the JSL and our nonprofit museum! #staugustinelighthouse #lighthouse5k #jsl #juniorserviceleague #staugustine #florida #lighthouse5k #5k #race #run #funrun #annualevent #stafla #nonprofit #museum #historicpreservation
