From the Organizer
Loopet Loppet is deepening your connection with the outdoors! We’re celebrating Dakota people, land, and traditions along Ȟaȟá Wakpádaŋ, the Dakota name for Bassett Creek. Join the Ȟaȟá Wakpádaŋ Loopet Loppet and run or walk a 6-hour or 12-hour experience that connects you with the earth in new ways. Come solo or as a team of 4 to run or walk as many 5-mile loops as possible.
We’ll also have a Ȟaȟá Wakpádaŋ Little Loopet for kids (under 8) to walk or run! And the Ȟaȟá Wakpádaŋ 1 Loop Fun Run/Walk is an untimed event is perfect for running or walking along the creek for all ages, either solo or with friends.
