It's a SHELL-A-BRATION! Lobsterfest at St. Thomas is celebrating 33 years of community outreach, and we are kicking off the festivities with the Lobsterfest 5k Run/Walk on Saturday, November 7 at 8:00 am! The race welcomes participants of all ages and fitness levels to enjoy a run or walk on the beautiful Aldridge Creek Greenway, starting from St. Thomas Episcopal Church. With your race entry, you'll receive a cool Lobsterfest 5K sweatshirt (shirts guaranteed if you register by 12:00 p.m. Friday, October 9, 2026)! All proceeds from the 5k and Lobsterfest benefit Huntsville's own First Stop Inc, Sleep in Heavenly Peace, Honduras Medical Mission, and Patterson Place. Let's get crackin' claws for a cause!
