Carter's Kids Festival Fun Run

Kids! Sign up for the 7th Annual Carter's Kids Festival Fun Run, sponsored by Lake Michigan Credit Union and Michigan Planners, on Thursday, July 6th prior to the Touchstone Energy Junior Royale Parade!

Traverse City’s own celebrity TV handyman, Carter Oosterhouse, will run a one mile race with kids of all ages along the National Cherry Festival’s Touchstone Energy Junior Royale Parade route. The course will start at Front and Railroad Streets and follow Front Street to Union Street; Union Street to Seventh Street; and end at Central Grade School.

Each kid will receive an official race bib, a medal, and refreshment. The entry is just $10 per kid race/walker and Kid Chaffeur (Parent). We strongly encourage parents to particpate in this run. It is a point to point race and there are over 500 kids who particpate which makes it harder to locate children at the finish line.
