VIRTUAL 5K SUPPORTING WISCONSIN FORESTS SCHEDULED TO TAKE PLACE IN APRIL
Registration is now open for the 2026 Run for the Trees: Happy Little 5K. Proceeds from the virtual event inspired by artist Bob Ross, benefit tree health and protection. Participants can complete the 5K race by walking, running, skating, riding a scooter or cycle, or on a mobility device at any outdoor location from April 18th through April 26th.
A portion of the $36 registration fee for those participating from Wisconsin goes towards tree planting and forest health efforts to combat threats from invasive species in the state’s parks and forests. A list of suggested routes for the event can be found on the Wisconsin DNR website in the OUTWIGO section under events.
