From the Organizer
Greetings Wonderful Run Runners, Walkers and Participants! We hope this finds you healthy, happy and well.
When we started this event 18 years ago, we had three goals:
· Create an event that allowed people to spend time with friend and family and get them into the holiday spirit
· Create an event that would bring people to our lovely town to help our local economy
· And, most importantly, raise money for those in need
A Winter Run Like No Other!
