The route starts along the beautiful Fox River and UWO Campus and loops out to Titan Stadium, starting and ending at the Student Recreation and Wellness Center located at 735 Pearl Ave in Oshkosh. The Shamrock Shuffle includes a Beat Clash Kids Dash ($10 per kid), Dog Jog, clocked timing, is stroller friendly and is something for all ages to enjoy! 

Jordan Mooney, UWO Student Recreation and Wellness Center, Coordinator of Fitness Services, speaks about the importance of the Shamrock Shuffle. “It is amazing to see some of the same faces year after year and hear about the folks that have been a shuffler since the beginning. The tradition of bringing that community together and raising some funds for a great local non-profit like the BGCO is what makes this event truly special. Between the campus community, volunteers, student employees, local sponsors, law enforcement, the City of Oshkosh, the runners themselves, and many more. The Shamrock Shuffle wouldn’t be possible without that collaboration and I’m very grateful for everyone that has a hand in it.“

We are very grateful for our community and the support of the Shamrock Shuffle to help our mission to improve the lives of children and families. By taking part in this spring tradition, you are not only signing up to start a tradition with your family but you are signing up to help the Boys & Girls Club of Oshkosh, the UW Oshkosh Police – K9 fund and fund the Student Recreation and Wellness Scholarship.
