WOW WOW WOW

Yesterday's HeadsUP 5K was amazing! The day was beautiful, sun was shining, and we had lots of smiling athletes! In fact, we had record participation with 244 runners & walkers. Thanks again to our fantastic sponsors, Kiwanis volunteers, community partners, and race participants!

This event is ✨so special✨ because it reminds us of the strong link between mental health🧠, movement👟, getting outside ☀ & fostering community connections👭.

No one values this link more than the HeadsUP 5K's chief organizer, JOEL DZIEDZIC!! Joel, in his partnership with the Slinger Community Running group & a committee of fellow Kiwanians, did months of coordination behind the scenes in order to make this event happen! We are grateful for Joel's commitment to making this event more impactful year over year. Thanks, Joel!

Enjoy these pics of the day and please share & tag Slinger Kiwanis Club in any pictures you've taken!

FROM OUR HEADSUP 5k HEADQUARTERS:

We are getting excited! Our 3rd Annual Slinger Kiwanis Club Heads Up 5K Run/Walk is happening this Saturday, and we are thrilled with this year’s turnout (currently 200).

Whether you’ve been training all summer or are simply coming out to walk, run, and support an important cause, we are so glad you’ll be joining us. This event is about more than a 5K—it’s about coming together as a community, supporting one another, and keeping the conversation about mental health going.
