Father's Day Weekend
Saturday, June 19, 2010 8:00 AM
Beverly Shores, Indiana
Join us Saturday, June 19 (Father’s Day Weekend) for the 3rd annual Necktie 5K
Walk & Run. As the name implies, all participants are encouraged to wear
neckties during the run in recognition of fathers everywhere! Prizes will be awarded
to participants with the most-creative neckties. This is the prefect opportunity to
spend quality time with your dad and enjoy beautiful views of Lake Michigan.
All pre-registered participants receive a commemorative race number and official
race shirt. T-Shirts are short-sleeved and unisex-sized; available in Small - XXL.
Refreshments (including bottled Gatorade and Angie’s famous peanut butter
sandwiches) will be provided to participants after the run.
The top three finishers in each age group will receive a novelty necktie. Also,
awards will be given to the first father-son and first father-daughter teams to cross
the finish line.

Our Course
Last year, we made adjustments to the course. The feedback was overwhelmingly
positive, so we are using the same course again this year. The circular course
features beautiful Indiana wetlands as well as dramatic lake front views. It also
provides opportunities to spot wild-life along the way. It is mostly-flat, but there are
two short (but relatively-steep) hills.
Visit our COURSE PAGE to view a map of the course and get directions to the
starting line.
