The Elm Grove Community Foundation would like to thank Molson Coors and Beer Capitol Distributing for returning as our Bier & Wein Tent Sponsor! If you're participating in this year's 0.5K Race, make sure to stop at the half way point for Jacob Leinenkugel Brewing Co. Oktoberfest!

Thank you Honest Teeth Dentistry for your continued support of the Elm Grove Community Foundation! We're thrilled to have you back as our 2024 Presenting Sponsor! Oktoberfest wouldn't be the success that it is without your amazing support! Danke Schoen!
The Elm Grove Community Foundation recognized the Village of Elm Grove DPW this week during National Public Works Week for their tireless efforts to keep our village looking great, clearing the roads after snow storms, and much, much more. Board members expressed our gratitude and provided lunch and cake to the team as a small way to express our thanks for what they do for the Village all year!
We’re thrilled to have supported the Elm Grove Wisconsin Police Department by partnering with the Elm Grove Citizens Police Academy Alumni Association to bring these e-bikes to the village! What a perfect day to test them out!!
Funds raised through our annual Oktoberfest event and end of the year appeal help make our granting program possible! We’re thrilled to support the Elm Grove Wisconsin Police Department and the community by purchasing this new speed trailer! Remember, the speed limit in Elm Grove is 25mph! Let’s be safe out there!!
Our new speed trailer that was purchased with the generous help of the Elm Grove Community Foundation has been deployed on Elmhurst Parkway to help reduce speeds along the detour route.
Click the below link to access the online speed trailer request form. We fill requests as the unit becomes available.

LAST CALL!!! Well, you guys did it, we are nearly sold out for this year's 0.5K race sponsored by O'Donoghue's Irish Pub! We have less than 30 spots remaining which means, if you were planning on registering on race day, we most likely will be sold out! This is not a joke, we're just giving you a heads up so you can't be upset if you miss out on this year's annual race...and that limited edition t-shirt, we know there's many of you that just do this race for the shirt...okay and maybe the beer too! ALSO, we're thrilled to share that Elm Grove's very own JOHN BERENS, will kick things off at 3PM with our Pre-Race program! Get ready for lots of laughs and a fun way to kick off Oktoberfest! Prost!

In 2018, the Elm Grove Community Foundation 0.5K, the RACE for the rest of us, was born! And since that inaugural race, O'Donoghue's Irish Pub has been a huge supporter of not only the 0.5K but of the foundation! Thank you O'Donoghue's and happy 5th Anniversary...yeah, it's the 5th because we had to take a year off, you know that year that we're done talking about! Don't forget runners...we mean walkers, beer drinkers, slackers, etc...The "Race" will start at O'Donoghue's Irish Pub!!
The Elm Grove Community Foundation would like to thank Molson Coors and Beer Capitol Distributing for returning as our Bier & Wein Tent Sponsor!

The Elm Grove Community Foundation is thrilled to once again have Honest Teeth Dentistry as our Presenting Sponsor of this year's Oktoberfest! This event couldn't be possible without their continued support!!
Attention runners, walkers and beer lovers, our Early Bird Special is about to end, yes, sweet deals eventually have to come to an end! Going through the end of day, August 5, you can still save on your 0.5K registration fee! Don’t slack and pay full price…register today!
"The World's Most Important Race in the History of the World, Ever" is a tongue-in-cheek event that not only lampoons the typical 5K, but also those made-for-overachievers-obstacle-course-adventure-races (warning, this race is too short for adventure racing which means there is no adventure racing)! This race is more of a walk/run beer parade from O'Donoghue's Irish Pub to the Village Park Oktoberfest grounds to kick off the festivities. Children are encouraged to participate and will enjoy root beer along the course. Adults over 21 will enjoy some great brews along the way.
Make sure to register today for one of the most anticipated events of the year! Prost!
