New Date: TBD in 2021
UPDATE: June 2, 2020
Good morning families and friends:
We hope this finds you safe and doing well.
After several conversations with our event host, Audubon Zoo, and sponsors about both events, Splash n Dash and Wild Thing Kids’ Triathlon, we are sorry to announce that we have decided to postpone until 2021. The uncertainty COVID-19 presents and the timeline to staff and reopening of Audubon Zoo to events with large group gatherings prevent us from moving forward. Registrations for both events remain closed. You will be the first to be notified when we reopen registration.
We have reached out to our Runsignup partner to allow our families to defer their registrations to next year or ask for a refund. As always, we respect any option you decide, but we ask that you consider deferring so we know we can count on seeing you next year! Please reply and we will be happy to respond to your deferral or refund request.
We appreciate your continued support and we are looking forward to producing fun and safe events next year!
Thank you in advance,
Coaches Rick, Jill Marie and Marshall
