Let's get moving this summer at the Greater Keene Rotaract Club's 5th annual Splash Dash 5K! Participants should prepare to be splashed as they cross the finish line at this family friendly event.

Walkers will begin at 7:30am, with runners starting at 8am. The race starts and ends at the Keene Family YMCA. A water station is located at the course's halfway point. Prizes will be awarded for EACH age division at the end of the event.

Race packet pick-up will occur on Friday, August 7th from 5-7pm at Ted's Shoe & Sport in downtown Keene. Participants can also visit our packet pick-up station on race day.

Registration is now open! Early bird registration (through July 17th) costs $25 per participant. Beginning July 18th, registration costs increase to $30 per participant. See event registration page for group discount pricing. Participants who sign up by July 15, 2026 will receive an event t-shirt.

NEW in 2026 is our $10 stroller flat fee. This will replace the cost of a standard $15 youth registration, so our littlest racers can cruise through the course in a stroller instead!

All proceeds benefit the Greater Keene Rotaract Club 501(c)3.

The Greater Keene Rotaract Club is a local social-service organization who aims to build life-long relationships with our communities, both local to the Monadnock region and international. Our club primarily participates in service projects that benefit children and families in need. In the last year, the GKRC has partnered with the Keene Community Kitchen, local Rotary Clubs, the Serenity Center,  Hundred Nights Shelter, Cedarcrest Inc. for Children with Disabilities, Keene High School and more to help those in need. In 2025, we were able to provide holiday gifts and magic for 68 children through our primary service project, Operation Elves, and we hope to exceed that number in 2026.
