Priority Health will be the 5k Walk sponsor at the Zeigler Kalamazoo Marathon taking place on Sunday, April 24, 2022 at 8:00 a.m. EDT. With this 5K Walk, event organizers wanted to ensure that everyone felt welcome to participate in the weekend’s festivities regardless of fitness level.

“Having an event like this where everyone is welcome is important, so we are very proud to have Priority Health as this year’s sponsor. Health is the emphasis here, and we couldn’t think of a better sponsor for the 5K,” said Aaron Zeigler, president and CEO of Zeigler Auto Group, the event’s main sponsor.

“We wanted to make sure complete families were able to participate from the kids to adults, and have a great time while taking steps to a healthier life right here in our community,” he continued.

This year’s event weekend will continue to host the infamous Bacon Station and the Imperial Beverage Beer Station, as well as welcoming a new soon-to-be crowd favorite: the Zeigler Auto Group Hot Air Balloon, which will be up in the air during the PNC Kids’ 1K event on Friday. The hot air balloon will be flown by world-renowned pilot Derrick Jones of Zeigler.
