Shermanator Triathlon & 5K Run/Walk

Join this area event and help change the lives of more than 700 Kalamazoo and Calhoun County Residents.

Annually, more than 500 participants, beginner to competitive athletes, take part in the Shermanator Triathlon & 5K Run/Walk, a USAT sanctioned event. Enjoy the adrenaline rush of crossing the finish line and reaching your goal!

This event raises scholarship funds to benefit area community members in need. These scholarship funds will help an anticipated 700+ children and families at Sherman Lake YMCA. These community members receive the opportunity to experience programs that will allow them to become stronger in spirit, mind, and body.

2009 marks Sherman Lake YMCA Outdoor Center's 15th year of building strong kids, strong families, and strong communities in Southwest Michigan through programs such as summer camp, YMCA wellness, retreats, and Character Development school programs.

Net proceeds of the Shermanator benefit the Sherman Lake YMCA Annual Campaign for Scholarships. The Sherman Lake YMCA Outdoor Center is a 501(c)3 organization.
