Noon Year's Eve

Bring the family (and the fun) to our Noon Year’s Event Run 🎉, now at the new location: Meadow View Elementary School 🏫 in Oconomowoc! We’ve expanded this daytime New Year’s Eve celebration to include a 5K 🏃‍♂️, 1.5 mile walk, alongside the beloved free kids’ run 👧👦.

Whether you're racing or walking, enjoy all the excitement in the comfort of a large, heated building ❄️🔥—perfect for staying warm before and after the event. It’s the perfect way to ring in the noon year with community, laughter, and a cozy place to celebrate!

This event is brought to you through a partnership with the City of Oconomowoc Parks and Recreation Department, Silver Circle Sports Events, LLC, and the Silver Circle Foundation, 501(c)(3).

🎲 Play games and win make-and-take kits—get crafty at home later!
