Lace up your shoes and dig out your most festive gear as the Jingle Bell Fun Run returns on November 30.

This fun, free 1-mile run or walk begins at 6:30 p.m. at the corner of Ashman and Main Streets in Downtown Midland. It’s not a timed race, so people of all ages are welcome to take their time and come dressed in their best festive gear (holiday sweaters, Santa hats, cool socks, etc.). All registered participants will receive a jingle bell bracelet to wear during the event. Furry friends and strollers are welcome – the more, the merrier!

Instead of a registration fee, participants are encouraged to bring nonperishable food items to be donated to a local food pantry for the holidays. The local pantry can always use peanut butter, crackers, mac & cheese, ramen noodles, any soups, spaghetti sauce & noodles, cereal & canned fruits.

Even though the event is free, don’t forget to register here: https://2023JingleBellFunRun.eventbrite.com.

Free hot chocolate for all participants will be outside of the H Hotel courtyard, provided by the H Hotel!
