9/11 Remembrance 5K Run/Walk

More information at https://runsignup.com/Race/MI/TraverseCity/911Remembrance5KRunWalk

DATE: Sunday, September 10th

The 9/11 run is to honor those who lost their lives in the September 11th, 2001 terror attacks, as well as Local First Responders and Veterans. A portion of the proceeds will go to the Grand Traverse Area First Responder Coalition. This brand new non-profit fund was set up to help local first responders (police, fire, EMS, Emergency Management, 911 Dispatchers) which will allow for education opportunities, scholarships, recognition, emergency financial support, etc.  The second portion of proceeds will go to the September 11th Families’ Association Fund in New York, NY, http://911families.org/

We welcome all Runners, Walkers, and Wheelchairs. If you would like to be pushed in a wheelchair or volunteer to push please visit our volunteer page.

The race start is at 8:46a which is the same time the World Trade Center Norther Tower was hit. We will gather before the race for a quick ceremony to remember and honor those who lost their lives that day and show support to our Local First Responders who risk their lives every day to keep us safe and then show our spirit with an amazing run!
