2nd Annual Running for The Edson

Join us in our 2nd Annual Running for The Edson!

A 5k course mostly through the grounds of the Saginaw Valley Naval Ship Museum, starting and ending at the ship.  The run will take place July 7th and will be timed by local legend, Ted Davenport from BARC.

What you'll give: some money to help keep The Edson Museum afloat financially. This year we have many exciting projects taking place -

Deck preservation is a big one along with our new memorial garden with "in honor of" bricks laying the foundation. 

What you'll receive: Everyone will receive a medal designed by the Edson staff and a runner's shirt.  You'll also get free entry on-board the Edson, if you pre-register.  AND, most excellently, you'll get a bona fide gun start.  From the ship.  A real live gun will shoot off to get you started.  Literally a gun start.

Also, Midland and Freeland Sports Rehab will be here to assist in stretching before and after the race! THANK YOU, GUYS!!! 

Of course, there will be water and snacks when you finish and there will be plenty of The Edson's personnel about if you wanted to ask questions about the ship.
