Beverly Shores, Indiana

Join us Saturday, June 16 (Father’s Day Weekend) for the 5th 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 perfect 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 together.
