Inaugural Sandpiper Sprint 5K

Thanks to the generosity of the Baldwin County Sewer Service and the City of Summerdale, we are incredibly excited to announce our first annual Sandpiper Sprint 5K!

Join us as we celebrate the birds that depend on the unique and vital habitats only found in Baldwin County. From the sparrows in your backyards to the gulls on our beautiful beaches, birds are dependent on the health of area ecosystems for survival, including that of native plants and pollinators. The birds need the insects, and the insects need native plants—and we need you!

This event is open to everyone of all ages and will be a perfect opportunity to enjoy the outdoors, whether running or not.

Course:

The Sandpiper Sprint will be held in Summerdale, Alabama. The course starts and ends in the heart of downtown Summerdale next to Pioneer Park. For the first part of the race runners will head south into a more agricultural landscape that the area is known for. Around mile 2 the race reenters the tree-lined neighborhoods of Summerdale where supporters can help cheer their runners on towards the finish line.

The race ends back at Pioneer Park where awards, food, and festivities from sponsors and local environmental organizations await!
