This year, the 5K is celebrating Anoka-Ramsey being named one of the Top 10 Community Colleges in the U.S. by the Aspen Institute. 

The 5K is a part of the Cambridge Campus’ Community Spring Fling event, which includes an Earth-Friendly Fair and a Health Fair. The day of events is perfect for a free family weekend outing.

“Each year my family looks forward to attending the Earth Friendly Fair to participate in the excitement, and now coupled with the Health Fair, there is even more fun to experience,” said Shannon Kirkeide, Dean of Academic and Community Outreach. “The day was filled with an electricity that energized all of us, and we will definitely return again this year!"
