Irondequoit Juneteenth 5K

Please join us on Saturday June 20, 2026 for the Irondequoit Juneteenth 5K Run/Walk! Juneteenth is a nationally recognized holiday and a celebration that commemorates the end of slavery in the United States, on June 19, 1865. General Gordon Granger led 2,000 Union soldiers to Galveston, Texas to ensure the freedom of 250,000-still enslaved.
