Photo Gallery: DWS 5k & Half marathon [Updated]

Posted on: October 18, 2025

Updated 10/19/25 @ 3:30 p.m. to add contact information for photographer.

The 13th annual Discover Whitewater Series (DWS): Half Marathon, Half Marathon Teams, & 5K were run on September 21, 2025. For the first time the races did not begin at the high school, due to the construction on Walworth Avenue. The start was on Schwager Drive near Perkins Stadium, and the finish line was on the football field.

Many thanks to Tom Ganser for this extensive photo gallery. Email tganser33@gmail.com to inquire about copies.
