Welcome to the Alewife Run and The Fish Ladder Restoration Festival in Damariscotta Mills! Whether you’re a fan of the alewife migration, a supporter of the Fish Ladder Restoration or just want to run alongside these amazing anadromous fish in a very scenic and special place, you’re going to enjoy this experience. We are planning our first 5K and 10K road race. Thank you to Lincoln Medical Partners and Becker Construction for sponsoring this event with additional support from Mexicali Blues.

Registration is $35 and includes an Atayne Race shirt with race packet. There will be “O’Fish-al” awards for the top three male and female finishers in the 5K and 10K races. We currently have gift certificates from Mexicali Blues for the first place finishers in each race. The proceeds from this race go to support the restoration and maintenance of Maine's oldest fish ladder and historically one of the largest and most productive alewife runs. For more information on this and for the registration link for the road race, visit www.damariscottamills.org The Events and Calendar tab have the link to race registration that includes the course and details for the event. Register early so you can reserve your shirt size preference.
