The Splash Dash is a 5K race and Fun Run/walk that promises to be a fun event for all ages and abilities. You will traverse through the streets of Cressona to support our beloved town pool that needs $1.2 million dollars in repairs and upgrades before we can re-open it. The race ends at Bubeck Park where there will be a fun celebration festival afterwards. Rally your friends and family and even your pets, and join folks of all ages and skill levels. We do ask that the only wheels allowed on the course, for safety, are strollers or wagons, please.
During registration, you can choose to have your run results timed or not, so there is no pressure to run, we would love you to come out and have fun!
