While we work to repair our community and our hearts, we ask that you hold off any further registrations for the event at this time. In the meantime, if you feel so compelled and are able, please choose instead to donate to the Menasha Parks and Recreation Family Assistance Fund through the below DONATE button. When our programming returns, we will have many more families who need the financial support provided through this Fund. Thank you for your continued support and generosity.
