Get ready to jingle all the way through Evergreen Municipal Park at the Reid State Holly Jolly Fun Run!
Join us Saturday, December 12, 2026, for a festive 5K and fun run/walk filled with holiday cheer, community spirit and the joy of giving. We want to see your candy cane tights, Grinch sweatshirts, elf hats, ugly Christmas sweaters and all the jingle bells you can wear.
Proceeds from the Holly Jolly Fun Run will support the Lions Helping Lions Student Emergency Fund at Reid State Community College. This fund helps provide support for the Reid State Student Pantry and emergency assistance for students facing unexpected hardships that could stand in the way of their education.
Participants and families can enjoy holiday-themed fun, including a holiday costume contest, ugly sweater award, jingle bell start, Christmas photo opportunities and a kids’ holiday dash, also known as the Elf Dash. Guests are also encouraged to bring canned goods or nonperishable food items for the Student Pantry Donation Station.
Whether you run, walk, jog, stroll or cheer from the sidelines, we invite you to come share the spirit of the season and the spirit of giving. Together, we can spread joy, share hope and show what it truly means to be Lions Helping Lions.
