All funds raised directly benefit the Jensen Community Center in Amherst, Wisconsin. We welcome runners and walkers of all abilities to join us for a fun run that showcases the heart of Amherst. Registration entitles participants on race day to a commemorative t-shirt, a commemorative can of River Run beer to take with you home, and the option to purchase a bottle of the limited and highly sought-after Central Waters Black Gold. Pre-registration is required. While same-day registrations are accepted, there is an additional fee and those registrants are NOT guaranteed a t-shirt.
