New Year's Eve 5K - Newburgh (December 31, 2026)
The event is an out-and-back 5K at Friedman Park (2700 Park Blvd., Newburgh, IN) that starts and finishes at the West Pavilion. The course uses the new trail to the Victoria Woods covered bridge and returns to the pavilion. A PVC key chain finisher medal is awarded to all finishers.
Registration fees are tiered: $30 until September 30, $35 until December 15, and $40 until race day. A medal-only option reduces the fee by $5. All sales are final; entries are non-refundable unless the event is canceled on both scheduled dates.
There will be no early packet pick up. Check-in and late registration occur at Friedman Park on race day. Timing is provided by To the Finish Timing.
The race proceeds rain or shine. In the event of ice or snow, the event will be postponed to January 3 at the same location. If postponed and a registrant cannot attend the makeup date, bib transfer to another person is allowed. If the event is canceled on both dates, entries are non-refundable. An individual’s inability to attend either date does not qualify for a refund.
Shirts are Tultex soft cotton in unisex sizing and are guaranteed for registrations completed by December 13. After that date a limited number of shirts may be ordered and sizes may sell out.
Awards are given to the top 3 overall male and female finishers and top 3 male and female in age groups: 13 & under; 14-19; 20-29; 30-39; 40-49; 50-59; 60-69; 70-79; 80+. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
