Spirit of America 5K

The Spirit of America 5K is a family-friendly running and walking event held in Phillips, Wisconsin, at 301 South Avon Avenue. Scheduled for early July, it serves as a festive kickoff to the 4th of July weekend. Participants can choose between a 5K run or walk, with additional children's fun runs of 1/3 mile for ages 6 and under and 1 mile for ages 10 and under, which require no registration.

The event offers water stations along the course and encourages early registration by May 30 to guarantee a T-shirt.
