5th Annual MDI YMCA Acadia Half Marathon and 10K

This race is the MDI YMCA’s 2^nd largest fundraiser of the year. Proceeds from the Half Marathon help fund our scholarship programs. The MDI YMCA is the cornerstone of youth development and recreational activities on the island.  Since 1900 the YMCA has been strengthening and enhancing the lives of island families through its programs and services.  Specifically, the Y’s scholarship fund enables families to thrive with the support of childcare for the single or dual working parents, it supports young people that need a safe and supportive environment to come to after school, engages active older adults who want to maintain an active lifestyle through low-impact fitness and aquatics exercise classes, and enables families wanting to provide an opportunity for their children to compete in competitive basketball and swim team programs. Your participation in the half marathon helps the MDI YMCA keep our doors open to the public on a year round basis. Thank you for your support.
