About the Doc's Run 2026
Doc's Run started with a camp doctor who began walking around camp each morning and gradually worked up to a regular route through the surrounding roads. That same path is still the course today, starting at a country road intersection, crossing the Wisconsin River partway through, and finishing at the camp's basketball courts. One stretch near the end feels closer to the finish than it actually is.
The run raises money for camp scholarship funds each year and draws campers, counselors, and families. There is also an option to participate remotely, running the same distance from your own neighborhood and logging it as part of the event.
