Birdtown Beehive Water Tower Run! -- Camden Running Club -- Monday 12/8@6p
Details
Join us for a 4-mile run around 2 of Robbinsdale's ICONIC landmarks.
We will start at VMD and Lake Drive, then head west along 46th, cross France, over Twin Lakes, and under 100 to get us to Bottineau. After we cross Bottineau we will find ourselves in Graeser Park.
Graeser Park features one of only two WPA-built ‘beehive fireplaces’ built in the 1930's in Robbinsdale, Minnesota, it’s the only beehive in its original location.
From Graeser we will head south along Broadway to the new Robbinsdale Water Tower.
The new water tower officially went online in late March 2024. This was a historical moment for the City of Robbinsdale, as the old water tower downtown has now been retired from the water supply system after 86 years of service. The even older tower near North Memorial is also now out of service after 68 years of operation in the community.
From the water tower we will follow the bike path down to Crystal Lake, then east to VMD and back up the path to our start/finish!
