From the Organizer
Join us for the 35th Annual Oswego YMCA Reindeer Run - a festive celebration that brings together runners, families, and holiday cheer! This beloved community event will take place on Saturday, December 5 at 9:30am starting and finishing at the Oswego YMCA featuring a fun 5K run/walk suitable for all ages and skill levels. This is a 5k fun run and not a chip timed race.
Dress in your favorite holiday attire, and don’t forget your reindeer antlers! Participants will enjoy a scenic course and views of the city during the most wonderful time of the year, all while supporting your local community YMCA.
All participants that register by November 18 will receive a commemorative event item. Proceeds from the event will support the Y, making this a wonderful way to give back while enjoying the holiday spirit. This event is a non-competitive run/walk and participants are asked to dress festively, may run individually or as a team. So put on your jingle bells, antlers, a Santa hat or ugly holiday sweater and join your friends and family for some fun and let's spread holiday joy together!
Register now to secure your spot in this festive tradition. Fees increase for same day registration and will be accepted until 9:15am on the event day.
