Algoma Shanty Days 5K

The Algoma Shanty Days 5K is a fun-filled family event. This year marks our 25th anniversary!  The 5K includes a start and finish at the Algoma Farm Market Kitchen.  You'll race through the town past historic Von Stiehl Winery, over the 2nd and 4th St. bridges, allowing you to catch a glimpse of the last 2 remaining shanties.  You'll get a whiff of Bearcat's famous smoked fish as you continue your course past 2 city parks, then up toward Algoma High School.  From there it's smooth sailing as you travel downhill along the beautiful Lake Michigan shoreline to the finish! 

The race includes a t-shirt, chip-timing, post race refreshments, and same day race results.  You'll enjoy seeing old friends and making new ones at this great event!  Come down and experience "More at the Shore", and celebrate 25 years of the Algoma Shanty Days 5K!
