Starting at 9:00 AM on August 8, 2026, the Sprint for Spina Bifida in Greenfield, Wisconsin gives you a morning window to complete your event without a full day commitment. The walking-focused event takes place at Greenfield Park, with entry from 116th Street at areas 1 and 5. Entry costs range from free to $20, making it an accessible option for most budgets. If you're traveling to the Greenfield area, you'll find the early start time manageable for a day trip or a short overnight stay. The race also offers a virtual participation option, so you can complete your walk on your own timeline if in-person attendance doesn't work with your travel schedule.

We look forward to seeing you on Saturday, August 8th at Greenfield Park! NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOU We know that kiddos out-grow adaptive footwear and equipment quickly. We encourage you to bring out-grown items to "swap " with other families. There will be a table to place your item(s) so others can view and take what will work for them. Please bring clean and gently used items. Items not "swapped" must be claimed by original owner at the end of the event. Our raffle has a lot of amazing prizes and ticket sales are 100% profit to SBWIS. If you would like to help us fundraise, please bring NEW items like toys, children's books, handcrafted items or a themed basket (wine/alcohol can be included) that we can add to our raffle ($25 minimum value). We reserve the right to combine or reject inappropriate items. Raffle items must arrive by 8:45am and can be dropped off at our raffle table in exchange for 2 free raffle tickets! 50/50 raffle - contribute and win half! We're starting with $100.00 in the winner's pot to get things started! Tickets on sale, cash only $20.00 for 8 tickets, $10 for 4 tickets. Drawing will be at 10:30am; must be present to win. Participate in our Match and Meet at 10:15am . Gather together to be matched with other members/families with SB. Sometimes it is too crowded or busy at the event to meet others, so we are creating an intentional (optional) opportunity for those who wish to participate. Be ready to exchange contact information so you can communicate with each other after the event to share resources, ask questions and benefit from valuable peer support. 2026 GIVE AWAY Those who have completed the online pre-registration before midnight on July 19th are guaranteed a custom event shirt (cotton t-shirt, event logo).
