Jingle Bell Jog brings Healthy Holiday Fun!

Mantua – Let’s start the holiday season with festive exercise, jolly visits with Santa, and joyous holiday-themed activities! Jingle Bell Jog offers a 5k race that is timed for the competitive, but can be walked for those who prefer to take in the spirit of this holiday event at a more relaxed pace. Participants are encouraged to dress in festive attire or costumes.

Also included in this event is The Merry Mile, a one-mile race for ages 12 and under. Santa and his elves will be there to cheer the kids on. Families can visit holiday craft and activity tables for some holiday fun, and warm up with some hot cocoa and goodies at the bake sale.

All proceeds from this event benefit the Crestwood Band Boosters, a non-profit group that supports the band programs in the Crestwood Schools. “We are grateful for the support we have received from the community over recent years. We wanted to offer an event that would draw the community together and provide a fun, creative outlet everyone could participate in,” says Tina Evans of the Crestwood Band Boosters. “Our hope is that this becomes an annual event that is part of many family traditions for years to come.”

This event takes place at Crestwood High School on Saturday, December 6, 2014. The 5k race starts at 9am and The Merry Mile at 10am. Pre-registrations are being accepted at www.hmapromotions.net (click on Calendar, then scroll down to Jingle Bell Jog). Registration opens at 8:15am on race day, and activities continue until 11am.
