Guardians of the Night 5K Returns | Columbia News

Join the Guardians of the Night 5K — Richland County’s 15th annual K-9 fundraiser — now moved to September 26th for cooler temps and safer runs for both humans and pups. Held at the South Carolina State Fairgrounds, this event features a timed 5K at 9 PM and a casual fun walk/run at 8 PM, with deputies and their canine partners racing alongside community members and their dogs. All proceeds support essential gear, training, and care for the Sheriff’s K-9 unit — honoring fallen heroes since 2011. Register online to run, stroll, or simply show your support for these lifesaving animals. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
