In the heart of Door County, a remarkable event not only tests the endurance of its participants but also embodies the spirit of community and philanthropy. The Door County Triathlon, an annual swim-bike-run event held at Frank E. Murphy County Park in Egg Harbor, has become a beacon of generosity, surpassing $1 million in donations to local charities.
Since its inception in 2005, this event has become more than just a competition; it celebrates collective effort and mutual support. The primary beneficiaries, the Door County YMCA and the Friends of Door County Parks have received 80% of these funds, enhancing their ability to serve our community. The remaining amount has been distributed among 46 other local charities over the past 20 years, touching countless lives.
What makes the Door County Triathlon truly special is its ability to unite people from all walks of life to pursue a common goal—not just the finish line but a better community. Each July, as athletes gather from near and far, they bring a wave of positive impact that ripples throughout our local charities.
