WARROAD, Minn — The Yellow Rose Race is returning to Warroad, giving runners and walkers a chance to support a great cause while enjoying one of the community’s signature summer events. The annual race weekend begins with the virtual race, running August 1st through the 7th, allowing participants to complete their 5K or 10K anywhere at their own pace.

The in-person event takes place Saturday, August 8th at Allison Park. Race day registration opens at 7 a.m., followed by the National Anthem at 8. The 10K begins at 8:15, the 5K starts at 8:30, and a free Kids Fun Run for ages 10 and under follows the races.

This year’s Warroad event benefits the Warroad Senior Living Center. For registration, race details, volunteer information, or to sign up for the virtual race, visit yellowroserace.com.
