WBF Announces Waukee Betterment Games Event

(Waukee, IA) The Waukee Betterment Foundation announced today the inaugural Waukee Betterment Games will take place on the afternoon of September 18, 2025, at Centennial Park in Waukee. The games are designed to promote teamwork, camaraderie and networking in a fun atmosphere, offering light physical effort and mental stimulation.

Proceeds from the event will support the Waukee Betterment Foundation’s Endowment Fund which donates to Dallas County and Greater Waukee area non-profits annually.

"When we began raising funds for the Waukee Betterment Foundation's Endowment Fund, our goal was to unite the Waukee community through a fun event that we believe makes Waukee an even better place to call home," said Nile Hicks, President of the Waukee Betterment Foundation.

The event will include up to ten games designed for an afternoon of fun for teams of four-five people of all athletic abilities ages 18 and older. Multiple sponsors have already signed on to support the event, including presenting sponsors, ATW Training and Vibrant Insurance Group. Game sponsors include Access Systems, Bank Iowa, Holmes Murphy, Mi-Fiber, ReMax Precision, RJ Lawn & Landscape, Stivers Ford Lincoln of Iowa and UnityPoint and game sponsors. Additional Betterment Games sponsorship opportunities remain. Organizations looking to get involved are encouraged to email Jim Miller with the Waukee Betterment Foundation

The Waukee Betterment Games will field between 32-40 teams of 4-5 people. Those interested in creating a team for the event should visit https://www.waukeebetterment.org/event-list.
