Ugly Sweater 5k

The Ugly Sweater 5K, Presented by Emerj360 is coming up on Saturday, December 3rd, 2022, and will be hosted by the Rotary Club of La Crosse—After Hours (RAH)!

We have been working hard to make our 2022 Ugly Sweater 5k, Presented by Emerj360, a family-friendly and festive event. This year’s race will be both in-person and virtual. Packet pick-up and race-day check-in will be at the Myrick Park Center beginning at 3:00 pm with holiday music and characters. Same-day registration is also available. The race begins at 4:15 pm in Myrick Park, and racers will run/walk through the La Crosse marsh trails under sparkly lights. The race ends at Riverside Park at Rotary Lights. An award ceremony will take place in the heated tent at Rotary Lights, and will have plenty of ugly sweaters, holiday lights, and cheer!

Your generosity and continued support of our club’s efforts have allowed us to make an impact both locally and internationally. In 2021 and 2022, RAH:

Served food to children and families at the Boys & Girls Club of La Crosse and the Trinity Lutheran Church block party
Sponsored and volunteered at GROW La Crosse’s Plant Sale
Led a book donation drive for Afghan refugees
Sponsored local families through the For Goodness Sake Project, purchasing gifts for families during the holidays
Contribute to Rotary International’s mission to bring an end to polio around the world.
In partnership with the Coulee Region Lions Club, we built 80 beds through Sleep in Heavenly Peace for kids in need
