From the Organizer

A festive 5k and 1.5 Mile Run/Walk on Saturday, December 5th, to celebrate the opening of Marine City 'Merry Time' days as well as commemorate Mike Miller who was a huge supporter of Marine City, and one of the founders of this event.

Come dressed up in your best holiday costume! All proceeds to benefit the Marine City Rotary, Mike Miller Scholarship Fund and a local charity. 

Day of registration prices increase $5. Day of registration and check in will take place at Gord's Bar 514 S. Water St, Marine City, MI 48039 beginning at 7:30 am.  The race starts at 9:00 a.m. at Rotary Park aka Nautical Mile Park please arrive there by 8:45 a.m. for announcements.

5k Start is at 9 am and the 1.5 Mile shortly afterwards.  5k is two loops through all the parks along water street and through the public beach with a turn around on N. Market to Pearl St. then a straight shot back to the stating line on the sidewalk or street (east side of water street)  This race is mostly on the sidewalks so there very little road traffic, maybe a few pedestrians 

All participants will receive a goody bag and be sure to grab a chili dog and your favorite beverage at Gord’s bar.  Big Mike would have loved this set up. 🌭🍻

Awards for top three male and females in the 5k race. The event starts and finishes at the south end of town. Come on out!  

We are also accepting nonperishable items to be donated to local food banks or individual families.  Thank you from the race director, Henry Hank Miller
