2026 Sprint for Spina Bifida

Super Heroes Never Quit!

When faced with obstacles and difficult situations our members with spina bifida are challenged to believe in themselves and remember that SBWIS is here to help! Join us for the 33rd annual SPRINT FOR SPINA BIFIDA to honor and celebrate the 500+ Wisconsin residents with spina bifida that we serve.

Our event includes the fun walk/roll on either a short or long route (you choose), fantastic raffle prizes, our 50/50 raffle, live entertainment from "Acoustic Blu", refreshments and enjoying the park's playground.

Highlights for this year:

• Outstanding raffle items: Prepare for amazing prizes and opportunities.
• Live music: Enjoy the live music duo "Acoustic Blu".
• Kid games: "DIY" Do it yourself (if we don't have enough volunteers) kid games and temporary tattoos.
• Registration deadline: Deadline for online registration, with event shirt guaranteed, is midnight Sunday, July 19th (due to shirt company required deadline).
