From the Organizer
Sandi Paws Rescue is back for a EIGHTH year with their 5K! All proceeds will go to our mission in saving abused and abandoned dogs and cats. Fond du Lac parks are now dog friendly, so make sure to bring your running partner! Register no later than 7/04/2026 to be guaranteed a t-shirt! There will be water dishes set up on the route for your fur friend. If you want to walk/run with a pup, we can have someone set you up with one. All runners and walkers' welcome. This event is timed and awards will follow afterwards. Packet pick up will start at 7am. The race will be starting at 8am. Please have a copy of your confirmation just in case. Last year a few people's names didn't get registered. I do apologize for this and hope to have it fixed this year.
NO RETRACTABLE LEASHES PLEASE. This is for the safety of all people and animals.
