A big thank you to our Comet Chase 5K sponsors! These businesses and community members are investing directly in Grand Ledge Public Schools — and we couldn't do this without them.

Todays featured sponsor is Clark Construction Company, our Innovation Leader Level Sponsor!

We still have sponsorship opportunities available for the 2026 race! Sponsoring the Comet Chase puts your name and logo in front of hundreds of Grand Ledge families on race day and beyond — and it means the world to our kids and classrooms.

If your business is interested in sponsoring, send us a message or visit https://www.glef.net/giveandsponsor We'd love to have you on board.

And if you haven't registered yet — do it before May 31 to lock in the lower price! 👉 tinyurl.com/glef5k
