Participants capped at 200 this year
by Kathy Swinehart –
The Jingle Bell 5K and Kids Fun Run will challenge and entertain runners of all ages on Saturday, Dec. 10. The run, organized by the Middlesex Family YMCA, will take runners “o’er” the fields of Hartfield’s Piankatank River Golf Club. Laughing all the way, children will follow Santa and keep an eye out for the Grinch.
This fundraising event makes it possible for all adults and children to participate in Middlesex Family Y camps, after-school programs, and fitness classes. And, the “one horse open sleigh” (or cart) will fulfill teachers’ wish lists for extra school supplies for their students.
Y members, runners and others are encouraged to drop off school supply donations at the Middlesex Family Y at 11487 General Puller Highway in Hartfield or at the Jingle Bell 5K and Kids Fun Run.
To be one of the 200 runners dashing through the snow (or sunshine) in the Jingle Bell 5K or the Kids Fun Run, register online.
