Shirley's House of Hope's "Run for Hope" Happening April 25th at Wildwood Park

Friday, February 20th, 2026 -- 10:01 AM

Shirley’s House of Hope’s (SHOH) “Run for Hope” will be Saturday, April 25th, 2026 at 9:00am at the Wildwood Park Pavilion (located at 1800 S Roddis Ave, Marshfield).

Registration is from 8am – 9am. Springtime is right around the corner! It's time to get your walking /running shoes out as our Fourth Annual Run for Hope is coming soon.

Always held the last Saturday of April, this year’s event will be held Saturday, April 25th from 9:00 - 11:00 a.m. What’s unique about this peer-to-peer event is that the competition is not for the fastest completion time.

Instead, runners/walkers will be competing to see who can raise the most support from their friends and family. Registration fees cover only a small portion of our goal, which this year is $56,000.

Each runner is encouraged to raise $1,000 to help end domestic abuse and drug addiction. For every $100 that each participant raises, s/he will receive one entry into a drawing for a Wisconsin Dells Waterpark Package.

Top fundraisers will win prizes that have been donated by businesses in our community. Registration is open Saturday, February 14th.  You can register as an individual, family, or as a team.

All participants who sign up before March 31st will receive a free Run for Hope t-shirt.  Also joining us this year with the planning will be students from the UW-Stevens Point Sentry School of Business & Economics MBA - Project Management.

“Thank you to all of our runners and walkers from the 2025 Run for Hope,” said Tammy Redetzke, Shirley’s House of Hope Development Director.  “We hope you consider joining us again this year!”
