Background: The 8th Annual Delta Dash is set for September 28, 2019. Historically, the 5K obstacle course race event has taken place at Lower Bryant Landing in Stockton.

This event draws over 500 runners, nearly 200 volunteers plus spectators. Delta Dash proceeds benefit the North Baldwin Young Professionals Scholarship Fund and the North Baldwin Chamber of Commerce.
