Event Description:

Join us for a night to remember!

Twenty years ago, the very first Girls on the Run team laced up in Madison—and what a journey it’s been since! From that single site to more than 130 across 11 counties and 25+ school districts, we’ve been striding forward toward something bigger: a future where every girl recognizes her strength, unlocks her potential, and boldly steps into her power.

Now, it’s time to celebrate! Celebrate the 25,000 girls who are on their way to becoming strong women—and some of our first alumni who already are. Celebrate the incredible donors and sponsors who have made it possible to bring this life-changing program to more girls, free of cost. Celebrate the coaches and volunteers who show up, season after season, to inspire and uplift the next generation.

Join us for an unforgettable night of food, fun, drinks, and dancing as we reflect on 20 incredible years—and look ahead to the next 20. We’re just hitting our stride, and we want YOU to be part of the celebration!

Let’s make this a night to remember!
