Jodi's Sparkle Sprint
Jodi's Sparkle Sprint is a short, festive running event held on April 24, 2027, at Adado Riverfront Park, 201 East Shiawassee, Lansing, MI 48933. The event describes a course of less than one mile run at each participant's own pace.
Costumes are encouraged. Along the course there are "Jodi Stations" with bubbles, high fives, impromptu dance activities, and camp chants. Finish line activities include music, popsicles, and playful awards such as "Most Spirited Sprinter" and "Sassiest Shuffle."
The event honors Jodi Ackerman and her work with children and summer programs. Proceeds support training and recognition for camp and after-school leaders who provide safe and empowering experiences for children. The listed price for participation is $20 and there is a fundraising goal noted on the event page.
The description emphasizes movement, community atmosphere, and lighthearted festivities rather than competitive racing. Information about registration deadlines and other logistics appears on the event page. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
