NEENAH, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Kids of all ages took part in the “Filthy Fun Kids Run” Saturday.
More than 850 kids from four to 17 took their marks at O’Hauser Park in Neenah.
The fourth annual event was co-hosted by The Fox Crossing and Neenah Parks and Recreation Departments.
The course took about one week to set up.
One parks and rec staff member described the obstacles in the adventure course.
“We also have some balance beams that they go over, ah things to crawl under. they go through a crick as well where the water is about ankle-ankle deep water and stuff like that so they’re gonna get wet, they’re gonna get muddy and something we didn’t order is the mosquitoes but they’re out as well,” said Jim Kluge, Neenah Parks and Recreation.
Each participant received a T-shirt, headband and commemorative medal.
The kids finished off their run by sliding down a water slide.
