On Wednesday, August 5 the Run for the Sun 5k will return to Kollen Park in downtown Holland, beside the beautiful Lake Macatawa.
Here are a few details about the event:
Race Location: Kollen Park, 240 Kollen Park Drive, Holland MI, 49423
Parking: Limited parking is available on the east end of Kollen Park where the race begins. There is also street parking nearby with a short walk to the park, or in the west area of Kollen Park, near the boat launch area.
Packet Pick-Up: Bib pickup begins at 4:30pm until race time, adjacent to the starting line in the east end of Kollen Park (near the playground area)!
Runners who reserved a t-shirt size by the deadline will be able to pick up their shirts! A limited number of shirts for participants who registered after the deadline will be available on a first-come basis!
Don't forget, the Critter Barn and Polar Patrol will be joining us too!
The 5k race begins at 6pm in the east end of Kollen Park (near the playground and picnic pavilion). The 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk will begin just a few minutes later from the same starting point. Route maps will be available! We'll be using the City of Holland's 5k Route #3.
Since 2009, Run for the Sun has been an opportunity for campers, counselors, donors, families, friends, and sponsors to join together in raising awareness and support for Camp Sunshine.
