Lace up for the Fawn 5K, a rewarding run/walk set to take place on April 11, 2026, in the charming community of Dryden, MI. This event offers a 5K distance, perfect for runners and walkers of all abilities, and all proceeds directly benefit Short's Fawn Rescue, a dedicated 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to the rescue and rehabilitation of white-tailed fawns. Participants will enjoy a scenic course along the popular Polly Ann Trail, known for its generally flat terrain, making it an inviting experience for those seeking a personal best or a leisurely stroll. The race starts and finishes conveniently near Dryden Memorial Park and Mulholland Drive, with a turnaround point near the bridge over Belle River.

Runners can anticipate typical race day conditions with highs around 56°F and lows near 34°F, and only a 14% chance of precipitation, providing pleasant spring weather for your efforts. What makes the Fawn 5K truly unique is its heartfelt mission; every stride taken helps support the vital care of sick, injured, and orphaned fawns. Plus, the race features immediate results and awards as participants cross the finish line, eliminating the wait and celebrating achievements on the spot.

Whether you're a seasoned runner or looking for a meaningful way to enjoy the outdoors, the Fawn 5K promises an engaging atmosphere with the added satisfaction of contributing to a compassionate cause. Join the Dryden community for this second annual event and make a difference with every step.
