The Gleason Family YMCA will hold its eleventh annual 5K Road Race Run/Walk on Saturday, May 18, at 9 a.m. The event starts and ends at the Onset Pier.

The entry fee is $22 for adults and $17 for children age 12 and above. Participants can register until 8:30 a.m. on the race day.

While the YMCA 5K has grown increasingly popular for individuals and athletes who use the event to qualify for other races in the region, families are always a big part of the race, which raises funds for the Y's scholarship program. The scholarship program gives financial aid to families who cannot otherwise afford Y memberships, classes, and camp.

The top male and female runners will receive cash prizes, and the first 150 entrants will receive T-shirts.
