The South Portland MAINEiacs 5K started as an initiative to increase awareness about the presence of the two Air National Guard (ANG) units located in South Portland. Much of the local community is not aware that for decades 50 Western Ave is the home to the 243rd and 265th ANG units and hundreds Airmen.
Since community involvement is a value we instill in all our Airmen, we are hosting a 5K to create awareness of the ANG in the community and bring them together with our Airmen to support a local children’s charity.
We are a non-profit organization donating one hundred percent of the race profits to Let’s Go! to help fight childhood obesity in Maine.
Our mission is simple; make strong connections between the community and the Air National Guard while focusing on helping others.
We hope you share our enthusiasm for this event and hope to see you there.
