Gene Bednarowski Memorial Run

For many years the Bednarowski 5K Run/Walk was held on the Saturday during the Watervliet 4th of July Festival weekend. After a hiatus of a few years, we are bringing it back and it will again fall on the Saturday of the 4th of July weekend. The event is in memory of Gene Bednarowski, a former Watervliet mentor, teacher, and coach. Proceeds support the Watervliet Track and Field Program.

The race will be run through neighborhood street and along the scenic Paw Paw Lake.  We are avoiding major throughfares, such as the state highway running through town.
