Fall Dash to Restore the Splash in Cressona
The Fall Dash to Restore the Splash is a community running event in Cressona organized to raise funds for the town pool, which requires at least $1.2 million in repairs and upgrades before it can re-open. The event includes an in-person 5K, a 1-mile Fun Run/Walk, and a virtual 5K option. The in-person 5K follows streets through Cressona and finishes at Bubeck Park, where a post-race celebration festival will take place.
Distances
- 5K in-person race supporting the town pool
- 1 Mile Fun Run/Walk for participants of all ages
- Virtual 5K run or walk when and where participants choose
Registration details note a pre-registration fee of $30 for the 5K and $15 for the Fun Run/Walk, with a higher fee for race day registration. Virtual entries are listed at $30. Race fees are not refundable. Participants can choose timed or untimed results during registration; non-chip bibs will be assigned and timing will be provided by Pretzel City Sports with results posted after the event. Packet pickup is available the day before at Cressona Borough Hall and on race day at the Cressona Pool Concession Building.
Dogs are welcome if leashed and comfortable around people and other dogs. For safety, only strollers or wagons are permitted as wheeled devices on the course. The event proceeds rain or shine. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
