2026 Historic Riverfront 5K Run/Walk
Boom Island, 9 am, Saturday, September 26
The Historic Riverfront 5K Run/Walk
Since 2005 the Fundraising Committee has planned, organized, and hosted the Historic Riverfront 5K Run/Walk on Boom Island in NE Minneapolis. It is our organization’s most significant fundraising accomplishment to date. For over 15 years the St. Anthony West Neighborhood Organization (STAWNO) Fundraising Committee has welcomed runners, walkers, and four-legged creatures, to participate in the timed 5K. Prizes and achievements are won every year! And our long-time sponsors–Mill City Running and Kramarczuck’s, keep coming back for more fun!
Since 2023 we have been teaming up with the Sheridan Neighborhood Organization (SNO) to share and grow this much-loved, active Fundraising event. We can’t wait to see how big the Riverfront 5K can become with our partners in Northeast Minneapolis!
It is our goal to raise funds for neighborhood initiatives and programs run by STAWNO & SNO that bring neighbors into contact, support civic engagement and create opportunities for making our neighborhoods better places to live.
