Save the date! Sunday June 7th for the third annual Bay Trail Fun Run. Don’t miss the wonderful community spirit at our biggest event of the year.
Registration for the run opens March 15!
Last years run was a huge success with over 300 runners and walker participating. This years Fun Run promises to be another great event. Festivities include live music, t-shirts and swag for all participants, great awards for top finishers in each age group, a special racers lunch menu at Trinity Restaurant, and the chance to win fantastic silent auction items.
The Bay Trail Fun Run benefits the Friends of Pend d’Oreille Bay Trail and ICL—and our efforts to preserve and enhance our region’s treasured waterfront trail.
The fun run/walk takes place along the shores of Lake Pend Oreille and SandCreek. This mostly flat route—which starts at Sandpoint’s City Beach—takes you out and back on the region’s newest unpaved trail, the Pend d’Oreille Bay Trail. It features stunning views of the lake, creek and white capped mountains. 5K competitors return to where they started, in front of the Best Western Edgewater Resort on Sandpoint’s City Beach. Before returning to the finish line, 10K competitors continue for an additional out-and-back leg on the paved byway trails that curve along the east shore of Sand Creek.
