Witte Museum 5K and Dino Dash: Presented by University Health System

Ready, set, RAWR!

This year’s Dino Dash: 5K and Kids Run coincides with the latest exhibition at the Witte, Tyrannosaurs: Meet the Family. Exploring the most feared predator of all time, Tyrannosaurs: Meet the Family brings the latest discoveries to life through real fossils and reconstructed life-sized skeletons of these carnivores. You think you know T. rex – now meet the rest of the tyrannosaur family!  

Every race participant will enjoy complimentary admission to the Witte, including special exhibitions Tyrannosaurs: Meet the Family and Antarctic Dinosaurs, on Saturday, May 27, by showing their race bib at the Walker Admissions Desk. 

Your support of the Dino Dash: 5K & Kids Run provides vital scholarship underwriting for field trips to visit the Museum. Your participation helps inspire young minds at the Witte and provides family-friendly fun outdoors for all ages.
