Sanford Fitness Fest

Fitness Fest began as a bicycle race or criterium. The popular annual event was launched by Sanford physician Parker McConville, who had seen similar events spring up in Moore County and Chapel Hill. Now in its fifth year, the Fitness Fest has become more than just a bike race.

It draws hundreds of cyclists to compete in a series of races in a closed-off section of downtown Sanford. In addition, several hundred local runners and their families compete in the 5k Run/Walk, 10k Run, Kids Fun Run and Kids Bike Race. There is something for everyone: bounce houses, a rock climbing wall, food, crafts, and more will happen simultaneously from 9:30 a.m.- 4:30 p.m. Proceeds from this year’s Fitness Fest will benefit Lee County Schools, the Wounded Warrior Foundation, Temple Theater and the Boys and Girls Club of Sanford.

New Release!! - Lee County Area Partners Newsletter

We are very excited to introduce a significant improvement to our LEEmail service.  Daily emails from our blog will be phased out and will eventually transition entirely to the new newsletter.  We are currently working with other local governments and quasi local government agencies to ensure their content is added to this new service.  The beauty of the Lee County Area Partners Newsletter is that it pulls information from all of the below organizations' Twitter feed or RSS feed and automatically compiles it into an easy-to-read newsletter daily.  It serves as a central hub to keep you informed.  To view the newsletter, you can bookmark the direct link or you can sign up to receive email alerts when a new edition is available for viewing.  Over time you'll notice more and more localized information as we collaborate with more local government agencies.
