The Fall Flood Run is a charitable run for Gillette Children's. Wristbands are still only $10 per person. Polaris Foundation and Indian Motorcycle pay all of the Run expenses so that 100% of all funds collected at the Run are donated.

It starts at Lake St Croix Beach, MN (just north of Afton), travels the MN side of the river south to Winona, crosses over the river and travels north to Prescott, WI, crosses back across the river, and heads back up to Lake St Croix Beach.

The total distance is 218 miles. If you are going to ride the entire run, you can upgrade to the Gold Star, which is an additional $20 and includes the highly coveted Gold Star pin. That pin is only earned.

Official Flood Run booths will be located at the Beach Bar in Lake St Croix Beach, The Nauti Hawg in Diamond Bluff, and the park at Maiden Rock. Great Flood Run merchandise is available at the official booths.
