Get ready to party island-style at the 25th Anniversary of the nation’s biggest Trop Rock festival! Join us at Caseville County Park for an unforgettable celebration, kicking off with a scenic morning race that winds through the best sights of Caseville—including a breathtaking stretch along the Saginaw Bay break-wall. (Heads up—single strollers are your best bet for this adventure!) Throughout the festival, be amazed by the flamingos, grass skirts and unbelievable designs featured throughout Caseville. The first 500 registrants to sign-up score a tropical race shirt (with limited sizes available and popular sizes going fast) and the first 600 score a participation medal that guarantees to put you on island time!
