Splash Dash

The Splash Dash kicks off an all day Celebration for America 250 in Cressona.  The Splash Dash is a 2.50 mile 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.  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.

*Please note this is an un-timed event.  Participants are welcome to use self-timers, if interested.  We are trying to promote community spirit as we start our pool fundraising.

The action starts and ends at the town pool on Graeff Street, where plenty of parking is available.  The streets of Cressona will be full of folks cheering you on too!  The Cressona Band will be playing for us and celebrating with us, as we finish our FUN run/walk. You won't want to miss this event, as there will be lots more fun along the way!

Wear your best patriotic wear or even pool accessories to join in the spirit of celebrating America's 250th birthday, in Cressona.  This is our first major fundraising event for the pool and we appreciate your support so very much! 

Special Splash Dash T-shirts will be available for kids (ages five and above) and adults alike. Virtual participants may also select a special t-shirt!  You may order a t-shirt with your race registration.  The registration deadline to snag your T-shirt will be July 1st.

Join fellow runners on July 18, 2026 for the Splash Dash. It's a fantastic 4K featuring a flat and fast course in Cressona.
