Post-Race Party

Celebrate with Friends and Family at the Post Race Party

The OneAmerica 500 Festival Mini-Marathon isn't just for runners or walkers. Come down to the 500 Festival Post Race Party and cheer on the thousands of participants as they cross the finish line. You'll be so motivated after seeing all of the different types of people crossing the finish line that you'll want to be among the first to register for the 2013 Mini-Marathon.

The 500 Festival Post Race Party in Military Park is a fun place for both participants and spectators. This beautiful urban park has plenty of grassy areas and shade trees for relaxation. There's no better way to celebrate than with an ice cold beer, enjoy great live music, a live video feed of the race, and outstanding food from local restaurants and specialty food vendors. Many activities are planned for all ages in addition to live music, merchandise booths, and a variety of food vendors. Don't forget to bring along extra cash!
