All Community Events - Lake Zurich, Illinois

Unfortunately must say over the years the quality of events is getting worse. I recently ran - and won 1st overall - the Spring marathon. Photographer didn’t think that accomplishment was worth capturing at the finish line, and it’s very disappointing.

Moreover, they’re doing everything possible to profit (increasing entry fees, cutting all possible costs). For example, each year the medals are getting smaller and lower quality - to the point where the 1st overall winning medal was literally printed on cheap label tape and slapped on the back of a generic medal (will add pictures).

For what you pay, this really isn’t worth it. There are far better races out there that have much better quality awards and swag and cost far less.

Really good customer service and very good value for what you get! Every run I do with them I am always satisfied by the professionalism, quality, and overall event that they produce. I highly recommend this company to all my runner friends! I have also volunteered with them in the past and was highly pleased by how they dealt with volunteers! I've also been to their light show at the Lake County Fairgrounds, Santa's Rock n Lights, with my family and will be definitely returning every year! Nothing like it in the area! Highly Recommend.

I have been to many of their events and it's always a great time. Whether you are looking for an event to qualify for big Marathon or you want to walk with your friends they seem to be everywhere and have something for everyone. They also give away really cool swag for what it's worth.

Thumbs up for All Community Events!

Have done a few races by them before and they were great. However, the most recent Turkey Trot was out of safety pins for bibs, they ran out of sweatshirts and they gave me the wrong bib #. Usually, a really well put together race from All Community, but this one, not so much. Hopefully they fix it for next year!

Santa’s rocking lights in Grayslake, IL is horribly organized. This is our 3rd and last year coming (2022). The time our young children are forced to wait in line before we even get to see the lights is over an HOUR after we arrived at our scheduled time.

Each year the wait past our ticket time has gotten worse. But this year they added a pop up village which seems to have doubled the traffic which was already at a bursting point.

Our ticket was originally for 5:00, they then pushed it to 5:30 because they double booked a running event. We arrived at 5:25, and didn’t get to the ticket taker until 6:20 and finally started seeing the lights at 6:30.

In the end we just needed to get out as soon as possible as our kids were miserable being stuck in the car an hour longer than we all planned on.

Terrible organization this year and we won’t be coming back.

I love all the 5K and 10K races put on by All Community Events! I've made several of their races a yearly tradition of mine! Their website is always easy to navigate and informative. The staff working at their events are always so friendly and encouraging too!

A nicely organized running organization. The post race snacks are generous for 5k to 10k races. They find some nice running routes in various locations across Illinois. It's good to see an additional company providing competition to the other companies involved in hosting running events.

Great race ? venues, sweet looking shirts ?, medals ?, swag. Definitely worth it. They have events all over the area. Something for everyone
