Saukville Scare - Virtual Run/Walk

The 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.
