_ The 2020 Dash Around Kampeska:

Join us a for the Inaugural DASH Around Kampeska, a running tour of Beautiful Lake Kampeska located in Watertown, SD.  This scenic half marathon will take you on a trip around the lake with trails running through Jackson Park,  Memorial Park and ending on the water front boardwalk at Stokes Thomas City Park. This course is a complete loop around Lake Kampeska, this scenic course is mostly flat with some rolling hills through the park areas.  If the 13.1 is too much, join us for a 2 person 1/2 Marathon Relay that splits these miles in half.

  
Make this a family weekend getaway; come Friday night, run the 5k, visit one of our unique restaurants, and spend the night in one of our great hotels.  Wake up early on Saturday morning for our DASH Around Kampeska!  Spend the rest of the day Saturday visiting some of Watertown, SD greatest attractions such as the beautiful Terry Redlin Art museum, Bramble Park Zoo, and downtown Watertown area.
