POTTSVILLE, Pa. – Team Red, White & Blue (Team RWB), America’s leading military health and wellness community, is the official charity partner for the 2026 Yuengling Light Lager Jogger 5K. The 14th annual race will take place Saturday, April 18, starting and ending at the Oldest Brewery in America, D.G. Yuengling & Son, Inc. The family-owned company has been operating for nearly 200 years.

The Yuengling Light Lager Jogger 5K features 3,500 runners navigating the streets of Pottsville, Pa., before attending a post-race block party featuring live music, food, Yuengling beer, and a charity raffle in support of Team RWB.

“Yuengling is a strong ally for Team RWB and America’s Veterans, and we’re excited to be the official charity sponsor of the 14th annual Light Lager Jogger 5K,” said Col. (Ret.) Michael “Sully” Sullivan, Executive Director, Team RWB. “We know our Eagles are ready to tackle this 5K, whether in-person or virtual, and support America’s leading military health and wellness community and America’s oldest brewery.”

This event brings people together around fitness, camaraderie, and tradition, and there is no better charity partner than Team RWB to help us honor and support those who have sacrificed so much for our nation.”

As the official charity partner, Team RWB will receive a portion of event proceeds to further support health and wellness initiatives within the military-connected community.
