Summit Metro Parks (SMP) is proud to host the 2024 Mother’s Day 5K as a limited-waste event. All park district-provided items will be compostable, including water cups, packaging, food, food-safe gloves and greenery. Composting is made possible by race sponsor Rubber City Reuse. Recyclable race bibs and chip timers will be collected by SMP to be distributed to the appropriate recycling locations. Participants are encouraged to help by carpooling and bringing a reusable water bottle to the event. Those who bring a reusable water bottle can receive a Mother’s Day 5K weatherproof sticker.
