Kick off Brown County Fair week with a fun, family-friendly 5K hosted by the Brown County Fair Foundation! This community-focused event is designed to bring people together, support the Fair, and get everyone moving before the festivities officially begin.

Held the Saturday prior to the Fair—when campers are already on site for the weekend—this 5K is the perfect way to start Fair week on a positive and energetic note. All proceeds from the event directly benefit the Brown County Fair and help enhance the experience for fairgoers.

Walkers, bikers, and runners of all ages and abilities are welcome. This is a participation-based event focused on fun and community rather than competition. There will be:
No timing or official results
No race bibs
No competitive pressure
Just a relaxed and enjoyable 5K in support of the Brown County Fair.

Course & Safety Information
The course will start and finish at the Brown County Fair Office. A water station will be available along the route, and limited volunteers will be positioned at key locations. The course crosses 24th Avenue twice; while traffic is expected to be light, participants should remain alert and use caution at all times.

Registration Information
$25 if registered prior to July 24, 2026
$30 after July 24, 2026
Same-day registration available beginning at 8:00 a.m. on race day for $30
Each registered participant will receive a complimentary Brown County Fair Foundation 5K t-shirt.

Whether you walk, bike, or run, join us for a great morning of movement, community, and fun as we come together to support the Brown County Fair and kick off an exciting week at the Fairgrounds.
