2021 Earth Week Virtual 5K Bee Run/Walk/Bike
Thank You for
Celebrating Earth Week with Us!
Thanks for "bee"ing with us for the VIRTUAL 5K fun run/walk held in the only national park offering scenic views of the Mississippi River! This year we ran a VIRTUAL version of the 6th annual Earth Week 5K Bee Run/Walk/Bike in Minneapolis! Participants choose their own route along the scenic views of the Mississippi River National River and Recreation Area!
Save our bees and their habitat by participating in a national movement!
A fun, family friendly event hosted by:
• Great River Coalition
• Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board
• The National Park Service
• St. Catherine University
• Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet
• Mill City Running/St. City Running
Bee Inspired!
The Apparel Merchandising Design students at St. Catherine’s University created these inspiring costumes to celebrate Earth Week, April 17-24. Create your own, participate in the virtual 5K Bee Run/Walk, and upload photos of your costume to enter for prizes.
Event is hosted by Great River Coalition – A 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
“Our bees (all of them, honey and wild bees), need good clean food (flowers)! Lots of flowers that grow over the growing season will help bees have good nutrition, immunity, and health.”
