Description

Join us for a Winneconne Community event!! The Winneconne Men's club will be hosting a 5K Run/Walk on May 1st at 10:00am. Typically, we host a large annual event that we call the “Duck Dinner” as our major fund-raising event. In both 2020, and 2021 we had to cancel the event because of COVID concerns of a large indoor gathering and social distancing. This year we are planning to replace that event with an outdoor 5K walk/run on May 1 to raise money. This event will be open to the public and we have participation from local businesses and the Winneconne High School’s cross-country team. We plan to have an outdoor tent area across the street from the Fin n Feather’s parking lot for registration, food, beverage, and various raffles. The Fin n Feather is planning to have live entertainment from 1:00 – 5:00 followed by a Kentucky Derby party in the bar. The walk will start from the Fin n Feather at 10:00am but please arrive early unless you have registered and pre-paid prior to the event. Children 12 and under and dogs are welcome to join at no charge. Go Fetch will be providing dog watering stations along the route as well. The Winneconne Men’s club is a group of approximately 100 men that live in, and around, the Village of Winneconne. We meet monthly for a dinner meeting at a number of local restaurants to evaluate and discuss fund raising and the needs of the community. We donate approximately $10,000 each year to local causes such as: Sovereigns State Days FireworksWinneconne Chamber 4th of July FireworksBadger State GamesLocal Families in NeedWinneconne School District ProgramsWinneconne Park & Recreation ProgramsScholarships to Students Entering CollegeWinneconne Police Departments Children's Christmas CrusadeWinneconne Area Assistance Center
