Our 50th year definitely produced a memorable event. Thank you to everyone who came out to enjoy the day with us. A huge shout-out to all the 5K runners who tackled those challenging, wet conditions on Saturday morning – your dedication was amazing! We hope you still had a fantastic race experience and that your shoes dry out eventually.

We are still gathering the results from all of the weekend's activities and will be posting those to our page in the coming days so make sure you are following our page.

Walcott Day is a community effort, and it would not be possible without the tireless dedication of our committee members and volunteers. Thank you to everyone who volunteered your time and talents to help make the day a success.

We hope to see everyone back at Victory Park next year for Walcott Day's 51st year, July 18, 2026.

If you have any pictures from this weekend you'd like to share please leave them in the comments for everyone to enjoy.
