Event Description

Join us on Sunday, May 17, 2026, show your support for the zoo and loop the lemurs as many times as you can in a 2-hour, or 1-hour event! With every lap that you complete, wave to our lemurs, Menabe & Rizzo, take a selfie, give them an air high-five, and if you’re lucky - you might hear them cheer you on! The more times you loop the lemurs, the happier they will be, and the more support you will show for our beloved zoo! Run to be competitive, walk with a goal, or just stroll and enjoy the beautiful zoo loop; no matter how you do it, you will be supporting Menabe & Rizzo and all of the wonderful animals at the Ross Park Zoo, with 100% of the net proceeds going directly to the zoo.
 
 
Loop the Lemur and earn your custom shirt and custom medal, along with admission into the zoo for the day!
During your loops through the zoo, you will also pass Red Wolves, Leopards, Binturongs, Lynus the Black Vulture, Owls, Arctic Foxes, Howler Monkeys, Red Pandas, Peacocks, Sand Cats, Fennec Fox, Cinereous Vultures, Pallas's Cats, Sheep, Goats and more!
 
 
Participants of all abilities are invited to take part in this one-of-a-kind event and can choose from 3 different events:
  • Loop the Lemur 2 Hour
  • Loop the Lemur 1 Hour
  • Little Lemur Kids Fun Run
Each event is timed and consists of covering the .8 loop inside the Ross Park Zoo as many times as you can or desire. Run, walk, skip, crawl, LEMUR SHUFFLE - it's up to you!
 
 
Awards for most laps will be given to:
  • Overall Male and Female
  • Second Place Male and Female
  • Third Place Male and Female
  • Team With The Most Laps

 

YOU could win a chance to meet the Red Pandas up close and experience a wild encounter!
Participants have the option to fundraise individually, with a team, or make an additional donation for the Ross Park Zoo! The individual and Team who raise the most money ($400 minimum) will each win a Red Panda Wild Encounter at the Zoo for four people and free registration for the 2027 Loop the Lemur event!

100% of all donations go directly to the Ross Park Zoo. Your participation, donation and fundraising provides support for the Ross Park Zoo, care of the animals, and their continued mission of endangered wildlife conservation and education. Our animals and staff appreciate it very much!

*Red Panda Wild Encounter is only applicable to individual and team fundraisers and not single, one-time donations. Wild Encounter must be scheduled with the zoo, for an available date after Labor Day.

 
The black-and-white ruffed lemur, sadly, is a critically endangered friend. 100% of the net proceeds will go directly to The Ross Park Zoo in support of their efforts for the conservation of their endangered species. Consider adding a bit more to your registration to help keep Menabe, Rizzo, and their families safe in habitats that protect them and ensure their survival.
 
**Crew is not allowed on the course. Spectators / non-participants are permitted with regular zoo admission.
