What Makes This Special

This isn't just another community 5K. It's a USATF-certified race through tree-lined streets, followed by a festival that transforms our elementary school into celebration central. Every dollar raised funds hands-on learning in science, technology, arts, and PE that budget cuts eliminated.

2026 Impact: $50,000+ raised for student enrichment programs (check out our Year in Review video)

BACK FOR 2026: Our popular Silent Auction goes public! Previously parent-only, it's now open to the entire community at the post-race festival - creating prime visibility for sponsors among an audience eager to support local businesses that give back.

NEW FOR 2027: Sponsor by December 1 at $1,000+ for a table at another WGE event, or $2,500+ to add a business banner on the school fence. Or become a Friend of the WG5k with a $250 gift!
