ABOUT

Hosted by SUP Safaris, the Super Scary SUP Race is back with the goal to raise mental health awareness and funds to support the young adult mental health nonprofit, Quest, in celebration of their new student-led peer-support program at The Citadel as well as at the College of Charleston.

This will be the second SUP race for a mental health awareness in Charleston, with the goal of raising $10k with 50 participants. The day will include not only an amazing line up of racers, but a super scary costume contest, an auction of wellness gifts and local items, free coffee and a motivational speaker to kick things off!

For our super serious paddlers, the Elite Division will entail an 8 mile paddle, while our super chill Novice Division will entail a 4 mile paddle.

Help us spread the word and share our online auction by tagging @questinrecovery and @charlestonsupsafaris in any posts on social media to promote the race!
