Mike passed away in September 2026. He was a devoted father to sons, Michael and Thomas, a proud father-in-law to Carly, and a cherished grandfather to his granddaughters, Avery and Courtland. A true family man, Mike is known for being kind, honest, loyal, funny, and incredibly social—simply put, one of the best people you could ever meet. Mike earned his master’s degree from Syracuse University and spent his career as an environmental scientist with Stantec before retiring in 2022. He was a devoted East Rochester resident who gave back to his community through 12 years of service on the village board as a trustee and deputy mayor, as well as serving on the Housing Authority and Board of Assessment Review. Mike participated in this race many times and was instrumental in advocating for the village to provide Public Safety and Highway Department staff at no cost to the charity for this and all of the 5Ks that took place in the Village. In February 2025, Mike was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma and endured chemotherapy, facing several hospitalizations along the way with strength and resilience. Today, we honor Mike for the life he built, the love he shared with his family and community, and the determination that reflects the spirit of this race. Proceeds of the race will be split between Mike's Family and Wilmot Cancer Center Needs Fund.

HISTORY: The 5k running course takes you past the Champlain Canal Lock C5 in the Hudson Cross Park. In 1777, British General John Burgoyne led several thousand British and German soldiers across the river at this location to engage American forces on his quest south to conquer Albany. To cross the river, soldiers lashed together a number of flat-bottomed wooden crafts to form a floating “Bridge of Boats,” and then marched across. The resulting Battles of Saratoga are considered to be sparks that precipitated a turning point in the war and to eventual victory for the Americans. We are excited to join with the Saratoga County 250th Commission to celebrate this historic site, and the commemorate the 250th Anniversary of the Battles at Saratoga, "America's Turning Point". The Saratoga County 250th American Revolution Commission consists of 13 official members (in honor of the 13 original colonies) tasked with planning and organizing all ceremonies, events, activities and celebrations recognizing the 250th Anniversary of the American Revolution in Saratoga County. Join us as we run through this historical region. For info on future Saratoga250 events, visit https://saratoga250.com/ and sign up for updates! **T-Shirt sizes are not-guaranteed
