Experience the thrill of the fourth annual Rodney Richardson Water Run on Saturday, September 26, 2026, at Town Square Park. This unique event, designed to beat the September heat, features a 5k and 1 Mile Fun Run course lined with super soakers and a refreshing blast from the Hattiesburg Fire Department as you cross the finish line. The race takes you through the picturesque Historic neighborhood in Downtown Hattiesburg, culminating in a grand finish at Town Square Park.

This is a great event for the entire family. All proceeds from the race benefit Ddembe Ministries, an orphan, widow, and family care ministry in Jinja, Uganda.
