About this race
Celebrate Dad in stride at the best Dam Race in Town: The Parker Parks and Recreation Dash Across the Dam 5K, presented in partnership with RNK Running & Walking! Gather family and friends and head to the stunning Rueter-Hess Reservoir for a 3.1-mile adventure that’s equal parts challenge, celebration, and community fun.
Whether you’re running for a personal record, walking with friends, or racing alongside Dad, this scenic course offers unbeatable views and an unforgettable way to kick off Father’s Day weekend.
Extend your stay with a free and convenient post-race day pass (per car), available as an add-on during registration. This pass offers continued access to the premises on race day. The day passes are provided by the car: spectators, families, and runners traveling together may all participate, but once you leave the premises you will not be able to re-enter.
New this year: Participants who elect for a post-race day pass may bring a personal watercraft that must undergo inspection before going in the water. Rentals will also be available through Surf'SUP rentals. To ensure your post-race stay at the reservoir, remember to add the day pass to your registration and note if you will use a personal watercraft.
The overall male/female finishers, as well as the top three male/female finishers in each of the following divisions of the 5K will be awarded: 12 and under, 13-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, and 70+.
This event is held rain, snow, or shine. NO REFUNDS will be issued. Any proceeds from the event will benefit the Town of Parker Scholarship Program, which helps Parker families and/or individuals with limited financial resources participate in Town Recreation programs and facilities.
