The 50th annual Pow Wow Days 5K, 10K, 1 Mile Fun Runs take place in conjunction with the annual 4th of July Lion's Day Festivities in Tomahawk. All races depart from Veterans Memorial Park on the beautiful Wisconsin River.

The 10K is ran on a scenic route along the river towards the turn around point atop beautiful Kings Hill just past the historic Kings Dam. The 5K looped course is basically flat and follows the 10K route for approximately 2400 meters then cuts across School District of Tomahawk property to School Road before running into Somo Ave then back to Memorial Park on 6th St. The Mile Fun Run is also a looped course for all ages, however awards are only for those 12 and under. The 5K/10K races start at 8:30 AM sharp and the Mile Fun Run begins around 9:30 AM, after the majority of the 5K participants have finished.

Pre-registrant bib and t-shirt pick-up for all races starts at 7:00 AM under the gazebo in the park. Pre-registration will end at Noon on Thursday, July 3rd. Race day registration station closes at 8:15 AM for all races (5k, 10k and 1-Mile Fun Run), with no guaranteed t-shirt. So, save money and get a t-shirt by registering early. Please note that T-Shirts are only guaranteed with registrations before 6/11/2027. A limited supply of shirts will be available for purchase on race day.

The last few years we have had between 600-800 participants! Once again we will have a July 4th Independence Day "Most Patriotic" costume contest with prizes for the runners with the top three outfits. The top one-hundred 10K finishers are guaranteed to receive a finishers 10K medal in the finish chute. The top three finishers in each age group for the 5K and 1-mile Fun Run will receive medals that will be available for pick up at the awards table under the gazebo. There will be refreshments in the finishing corral for race finishers provided by Northwoods Vineyard Church. Please remember that 5K and 10K races will start together. Eventually the races lead to a Y-intersection where the 5K runners take a sharp right turn onto school grounds and 10K runners go left continuing on King Road.

**Reminder-->There will not be an Awards Ceremony, instead awards for the 5k and Fun Run need to be picked up after you finish your race at the Awards Table which will be located under the gazebo. Please ensure you have your race bib with you, as the awards volunteer will need to verify your place with the Runsignup live results strictly using your bib number. Award winners in the 10k will receive their award in the finish chute, except for the 1st and 2nd place overall male and female who will need to pick up their trophy under the gazebo. Also, if you are not present to claim your pre-registered t-shirt by the start of the last race (roughly 9:30 AM Fun Run) you will not be guaranteed your shirt.

**In case of inclement weather the tentative plan would be to run the race the next day pending City of Tomahawk approval. Please check your email and listen to the local radio station (WJJQ 92.5) for updates.
