2025 Mago Point 5k
Organizer's Description
Join us for the Harvest 5K Run and Festival at Mago Point!
This event is more than just a race — it’s about building community and giving back locally. Each year, runners, families, and neighbors come together to celebrate the season, connect with one another, and support causes close to home.
Proceeds from this year’s event will go directly to the Waterford Police Department, strengthening the partnership between our community and those who protect and serve it. By lacing up and participating, you’re not only enjoying a beautiful fall outing but also contributing to a stronger, safer Waterford.
After the run, stick around for our Harvest Festival featuring:
Live music
Local vendors with seasonal goods
Kids’ activities like pumpkin painting
The Gather 360 Food Truck, serving cozy fall favorites — chili & grilled cheese
It’s the perfect fall day for runners, families, and friends alike — a tradition that combines wellness, community, and local pride.
