WSB 5K Run for St. Jude

, ,

Registration is now open!

WSB is bringing our Winnsboro, Gilbert, Mangham, Rayville, and Ruston communities together for the upcoming WSB Run for St. Jude 5K Run/Walk on Saturday, October 10th in Winnsboro.  This inspiring, family-friendly event invites participants of all ages and fitness levels to move for a vital cause: supporting the lifesaving mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

Walkers and runners from across Northeast Louisiana will gather to raise critical funds that allow St. Jude to pioneer cures for pediatric cancer and other life-threatening diseases. Because of community support from events like this race, families facing childhood illness never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing, or food—allowing them to focus entirely on helping their child heal.

To register for this event, click the link provided under the website description. Registration closes at 12 pm on October 9th, 2026.
