Join us on Saturday, October 7th for our Annual Fresh Start 5k run/walk event!  Fresh Start Clubhouse is a nonprofit organization designed to support people with mental illness in their recovery through meaningful work and relationships. We have been helping people with their mental health recovery in the Ann Arbor/Ypsilanti area for more than 20 years. 

With the support of community members like you, we have begun taking steps to impact even more lives. With your 5K registration, you will be supporting access to both virtual and in person programs, education support, vocational opportunities, and many other recovery resources. 

Pricing:  Early Bird Registration - $35 until 9/15 with a t-shirt guaranteed.  $45 from 9/16 to 10/4 t-shirts are not guaranteed and available as supplies last. $55 on 10/5 to 10/7, t-shirts not available. 

Family Pricing: Register 3 or more people at the same time and receive a $5/person discount.  

Team pricing: $5 discount per participant with a team of four or more. The discount will automatically be refunded when you have at least four people join your team. Your team must consist of four or more before registration closes in order to qualify for the team discount of $5 per person. Team members 1-3 will receive a $5 refund once member 4 joins.
