À propos de l'événement

The 18th Annual Run for Sight 5K, presented by Shoreline Vision, will be held on Saturday, September 7, 2024, at 8:30AM. Join us in one of the most beautiful, picturesque parks along Lake Michigan - at Pere Marquette Park to benefit The Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired (ABVI)!

For over one hundred years, the ABVI has carried out the mission to “help individuals with low vision or blindness thrive in a sighted world.” Each year, ABVI serves around 1,000 children and adults from across the state of Michigan, providing programs and assistance for people living with visual impairments or blindness.

IMPORTANT PARKING UPDATE:

The City of Muskegon implemented paid parking at Pere Marquette last year with the 2023 daily rate on weekends of $10 (or a season pass for $20). Racers will find a number of kiosks located near parking spaces that will take credit cards and coins. Dispensed parking passes must be displayed on the driver’s side dashboard.
