2025 MD SCADaddle Event


SCADaddle

The 2nd annual Solomons Island (MD) 5K SCADaddle© for Research chip-timed run/walk took place on Saturday, May 17, 2025. The SCADaddle started and ended at the Tiki Bar & Grill, Solomons, Maryland. Solomons Island is a short drive from Baltimore, Annapolis and Washington, DC.

Eleven of the 60 plus registrants were survivors. Thousands of dollars were raised for much needed research! Participants enjoyed beautiful weather and each other’s company throughout the morning.

After the SCADaddle there was an awards ceremony for top finishers. The top three male and top three female overall finishers and the top male and top female winners in each age category were recognized. All participants received a medal.

Thank you to all who joined in the festivities and helped to make this year’s Solomons Island (MD) SCADaddle such a success!
