Christmas in the Park
About this race
The 2026 Christmas in the Park, sponsored by Chick-fil-A, will be held on December 5, 2026 at Deming Park. This race benefits Clothe a Child with 50% of the proceeds going to the organization. This race includes a 5K run/walk option for adults and youth, and a 1-mile Reindeer Romp for youth. The Reindeer Romp will start at 9:40 a.m. with the 5K starting after that. The deadline to register and receive a t-shirt is Sunday, November 29th at 11:59P. Packet pick up will take place the morning of the race at the Torner Center inside Deming Park.
Race Day Awards:
Awards will be given; including overall awards, age group awards, and walker awards. Awards are based on 5-year age groups. And please remember: IF YOU ARE SIGNED UP AS A WALKER, PLEASE DO NOT RUN! We have competitive walkers who work hard and it wouldn’t be fair for a someone to run part of the race and beat out a competitive walker who walked the complete event.
