Monroe Old Settlers Scare on the Square 5K
The Monroe Old Settlers Scare on the Square 5K is a Halloween themed run and walk held in Monroe, Iowa on Saturday, October 24, 2026. The event is presented by Monroe Old Settlers and takes place with the start and finish near the Monroe Town Square. It is designed as a community event for runners and walkers of all experience levels.
Registration includes entry into the 5K, an official race shirt for participants who register by the shirt deadline, a sweet treat at the finish, and entry into the costume contest. Costumes are encouraged but should be safe to run or walk in and should not interfere with other participants.
Additional information about packet pickup, parking, race day check in, and the final course will be provided to registered participants as the event approaches. Walkers are welcome.
