Saukville Scare - Virtual Run/WalkThe 2020 Saukville Scare 5K Run/Walk, hosted by the Saukville Chamber of Commerce, will be virtual. While we wish that we could have our traditional in-person event, the health and safety of our participants and volunteers is most important.
Participants will be able to run or walk the race at their convenience - outside, on a treadmill, however they want - and will be able to submit their times to the Chamber. We will also be holding a virtual costume contest. All results will be posted on Halloween Day - Saturday, October 31st!
There will be no entry fee for the race, instead we will be selling t-shirts and accepting donations for Saukville Elementary School's Free Breakfast Program.
Registrations is open. Visit the Saukville Chamber website for registration/information.
