Michelle's Memorial 5K
Michelle's Memorial is an annual 5K held in Middleport, NY, alongside the Erie Canal. The 15th running is scheduled for Saturday, November 21, 2026. The event is presented with local sponsors and is described as family friendly; it welcomes walkers and multiple generations.
The race raises funds for scholarships and community programs established in memory of Michelle. Two awards are offered through the scholarship program: a Scholar Athlete award for graduating seniors of Royalton-Hartland High School and students from schools in the Niagara-Orleans Sports League who excel in music, sports and academics, and a S.T.E.M. award for graduating seniors of Royalton-Hartland pursuing a career in S.T.E.M. Scholarship applications for 2027 will be available in January.
The event emphasizes community involvement by supporting local businesses, events and causes. Online registration is listed as open, and race day registration is handled at a local community location. The race has previously included local vendors and sponsor-supported elements.
