Description
Join us for a 5K and/or 1 Mile Run/Walk in the heart of Annandale during one of the greatest Independence Day celebrations in the state of Minnesota! Annandale's Firecracker 5K and 1 Mile Sparkler Run/Walk is a family-friendly yet competitive event. We are excited to announce NEW courses this year, beginning and ending in the heart of Annandale's 4th of July Celebration, Annandale Municipal Park.
The Firecracker 5K & 1 Mile Sparkler Run is a fundraiser supporting the St John's Lutheran Church Children, Youth, and Family Fund, as well as other groups around the city of Annandale that support the event. Over the last few years close to $2,000 was donated to the Annandale ISD Activities Fund, the Annandale Ambassador Program, and the Annandale Police Reserve.
