Santa's North Pole Dash

November 17 - Last Day to Register for Shirts to Ship before Race Day
We're looking for some AMAZING Volunteers for this years' race. From being a much needed course marshal to helping with the Children's Snowman Shuffle and handing out finisher medals and bottled water. Each job only lasts 1.5 to 2 hours and that time goes by FAST!

All volunteers get a shirt and if you have someone who needs service hours - this is something to look at!
Our theme for this years' Santa's North Pole Dash is based off the family classic - The Polar Express. Participants will receive a themed shirt (shipped directly to their homes) and a collectable finishers medal at the finish line.

If you would like your runners shirt delivered prior to raceday, you MUST register prior to November 17th. Any registrations after this date will have their shirts shipped the week of December 6th.

Interested in taking part this year?? Click the button below to register today.
