Get ready to dash through a 5k wonderland of twinkling lights, jammin' live local bands, and even a sprinkle of snow! You'll be glowing with your glow necklaces as you join a pack of merry runners, joggers, walkers, and their furry sidekicks. We will have local food trucks on hand for you to purchase pre-fuel or even refuel along with beer, wine, and cheeky Boozie Pops. No bibs or timers here—just heaps of fun and holiday cheer!

By joining in the festivities, you're helping to support housing and services for at risk adults, Veterans, youth, and families in our community—many of whom have faced homelessness. Jump in and help us BUILD BETTER TOMORROWS TODAY by signing up now!
