The Splash & Dash is a family-friendly swim and run race benefiting Every Child A Swimmer. Participants will complete a swim followed immediately by a run before crossing the finish line and earning their finisher medal. With age-appropriate race divisions for children, teens, and adults, this event is designed to promote fitness, water confidence, community involvement, and support for drowning prevention efforts.
Whether you’re racing for a personal best, participating as a family, or cheering from the sidelines, every registration helps provide access to life-saving swim lessons and water safety education for children in need. Join us for an exciting morning of swimming, running, and making a difference—because every child deserves the opportunity to learn to swim.
Family participation is encouraged, and all skill levels are welcome.
