Come see us at North Point on April 25th for a meetup. Be sure to register early to get your gear!

Registration is open for the 2026 Run for the Trees: Happy Little 5K!

Inspired by the legendary Bob Ross and his love of the outdoors, Run for the Trees takes place April 18–26, aligning with Earth Day and Arbor Day. This fun, feel-good event is all about getting outside—walk, run, jog, stroll, or roll. You choose the pace and the place, anywhere outdoors (we recommend state parks and trails 😉).

Your $36 registration includes:

• A keepsake Happy Little T-shirt
• A commemorative race bib
• Bob Ross-inspired finisher’s medal
• Shipping
• Support for tree planting and forest protection in South Dakota State Parks.

Register by April 1 to ensure your race packet arrives in time. Space is limited and may sell out!
