    Big Rivers Waterpark proudly presents... the 2nd Annual Big Rivers Splash & Dash — Benefitting the TANGO2 Research Foundation!

    Lace up your sneakers and get ready to make a splash for a cause that hits close to home. Join us Saturday, June 13th 2026 for the Big Rivers Splash & Dash, where every step you take supports critical research and awareness for TANGO2 — a rare genetic disorder that’s personally impacted the Galland family, owners of Big Rivers.

    There’s a race for everyone:

    • Aquathlon (500m Swim & 5K Run)

    • 10K Dash

    • 5K Dash

    • Kids Dash (10 & Under)

    • Virtual Runs (for those that can't make it & our long-distance supporters!)

    The scenic course winds through Big Rivers Waterpark and around our picturesque lake, giving you a unique view of the park. Expect fun, energy, and excitement at every turn — with the added reward of supporting a truly meaningful cause.

    Why We Run:

    The TANGO2 Research Foundation was a lifeline for Megan Galland, who faced her first health crisis at just six months old during a family trip. Initially misdiagnosed, Megan eventually received answers thanks to the tireless work of the TANGO2 Foundation. Now, we're running to give that same hope to other families.

    WHAT YOU GET:

    • Custom Dynamic Polytech Race Shirt

    • Custom Interactive Finisher Medal

    • Official Custom Race Bib

    • Chance at Overall and Age Group Awards

    Pre-Race Warm-Up

    Finisher Tent with Snacks, Refreshments, and Celebration
