Reindeer Run Cancelled for 2024
Thank you for signing up for our annual reindeer run. Due to unforeseen circumstances, a decision was made that the event needs to be postponed until Summer or Fall of 2025. We are happy to refund your payment directly to you in the mail or if you choose to still use this as a donation, you can write this off for tax purposes as we are a not-for-profit 501C3. We are again sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for all of your support. We hope to see you at our upcoming National Night Out event at Kaper Park on Thursday, August 8th! The event is free, we will have 15 food trucks, games, face painting, balloons, a helicopter landing and more! We will also be giving away free bikes and helmets and will have send off fireworks at the end of the event!
All the best,
