5k-ish and volunteering, park cleanup
Location TBD
Stride to Serve is a simple idea: move your body, meet good people, and serve our community.
We’ll help clean up a park for the City of Minnetonka, have a 35-minute run or walk and then celebrate.
No special skills required—just show up ready to move and help out.
Limit of 20, register if you’re attending!
For the walk or run, no pace or distance is wrong! This is not a race! We will not time you or track how far you go. If you’re happy, we’re happy!
Who Should Come?
* Runners and walkers of all levels
* People who enjoy volunteering
* Anyone who wants to meet neighbors and spend time outdoors
* Families and friends who want to do something positive together
* Kids are welcome, it’s a great way to have fun and help others together. Kids under 14 must be supervised by an adult.
* Come alone or come with others, either way you’ll have fun and connect

Why Stride to Serve With Us?
We believe the best community events combine three things:
🏃 **Movement** – Exercise that feels good
🤝 **Connection** – Meeting people who care about the community
🌱 **Service** – Doing something tangible that improves kids’ lives
