Volunteer in Active Central Minnesota

Active Central MN was incorporated by Bill Corcoran in 2018 with support from founding partners who provided early and significant funding to launch and sustain the organization, including Rollga, Viking Coca-Cola, Williams Integracare, and Granite Partners.

Prior to Active Central MN, Bill was the founder and president of Graniteman, Inc. Graniteman initiated and managed the Graniteman Triathlon series that began in 2004. Graniteman was a for-profit corporation, and Bill wished to move it to a non-profit corporation structure to engage a broader set of community organizations. Graniteman transitioned its brand and assets to Active Central MN in 2019. In 2020, to sustain its legacy, the Apple Duathlon followed suit and transitioned its brand, assets, and operations to Active Central MN. In 2021, CentraCare contracted with Active Central MN to manage the Earth Day series. Today, Active Central MN manages this five-event series and is positioned to deliver and promote more active lifestyle events across the year.

Active Central MN’s mission is to promote wellbeing through community-wide support of healthy, active lives. As a St. Cloud, Minnesota-based nonprofit, we envision a year-round series of fitness experiences: active people enjoying Minnesota’s great outdoors, leading healthy lives, and contributing to a vibrant community.
