Description
Come celebrate the official start of Summer 2026 with us as we kick off the season with a fun and rewarding 5K in beautiful Sackets Harbor, NY. This event coincides with the Summer Solstice on Saturday, June 20th. Join us as we usher in the beauty and warmth the new summer ahead. The 5K course is mostly flat with spectacular views of Lake Ontario as you make your way along the 3.1 mile scenic course. Expect more that just a 5K run as we are teaming up with the 1812 Brewing Co., the Whiskey Coop and The Boathouse to extend the fun beyond the run!
Willow Running USA is teaming up with the Garrett W. Loomis Foundation, a 501c-3 committed to enhancing Fire Safety regionally in the memory of Garrett.
New for 2026- We are adding a 1 Mile Course Option with Garrett Loomis in mind! The 1 Mile Run in honor of Garrett will begin just before the start of the 5K (9:30am). THIS IS NOT A TIMED EVENT. Registration includes tee shirt only & there is not a finishers medal included.
Join us if you love to run, love to have fun and especially if you love the sun!
