There are three parking locations for racers to utilize, but we encourage local participants (residents of the Lake Barrington Shores Community) to walk or carpool to the start line! 

Participants can park at the Market Place Parking Lot at the corner of Kelsey Road and IL Route 59 (5031 Shoreline Road, Lake Barrington) and also in the grassy out lot, at the same location. 

Overflow parking will be located at North Barrington Elementary School (24175 N. Grandview Dr. North Barrington) and shuttle buses will take racers to the Start Line.  North Barrington School is located just North of Miller Road and on the East side of IL Route 59. 

There will NOT be a Gear Check at the Race. 

All Memorial 5K participants will receive a race tech shirt, finishers medal, chipped timing bib, and other event sponsor promotional materials. 

Awards will be given to the Top 3 Finishers for both Men and Women. Age group awards will also be given out.  Age group awards will be given in 10-year increments.
