From the Organizer
Join us for the Sturgeon Shuffle 2026! Presented by First State Bank, the Sturgeon Shuffle is a family-friendly 5K walk/run and a 10K competitive road run open to all levels of athletes. Named after the spring “sturgeon run”(spawning season), both events kick off from New London Middle School and are fully chip-timed (start and finish), taking participants on an out-and-back course on County Highway X along New London’s beautiful Wolf River.
Proceeds raised from the Shuffle will benefit backpack programs in our community and region including: Project Backpack New London, Project Backpack Waupaca (serving Waupaca, Manawa, Weyauwega-Fremont, Iola-Scandinavia, and Amherst school districts), and the Compassionate Connections Center Nutrition Mission in Clintonville. These organizations are working hard to stamp out hunger in our schools.
Join us in your journey to good health and know that your steps are helping to improve the health and wellbeing of our communities too!
Dogs (on a leash) are now permitted to join runners & walkers on the Sturgeon Shuffle course this year!
There will be a "TEAM Competition" for which additional awards will be offered to the Top Team (Overall time/place for the top 3 participants)!
