Run the Bay 2025

The Whitefish Bay Public Education Foundation is thrilled to share that this past weekend we held our annual fundraiser, Run the Bay. It was a HUGE success and is marked as one of the best years yet! There were 500 runners and walkers enjoying the weather, energy, and community in Klode Park on Saturday, May 3rd! That's over 100 hundred more participants than last year! Incredible turnout! The fact that it all supports our educators and our schools is icing on the cake.

Huge shoutout to our amazing volunteers, WFB Police Department, WFB DPW, sponsors and of course the amazing community. We’re so proud to be part of a community that comes together to support our schools—thank you!

We look forward to seeing you all again for Run the Bay 2026!

The WFBPEF has been organizing this race/fundraiser for almost 20 years. Several years ago, we moved the race to Klode Park to partner with the Whitefish Bay Civic Foundation’s Green Day in the Bay. Collectively these two events have created what we now know as Bay Day.

The perfect collaboration to support the Whitefish Bay community.
