Santa Shuffle

Celebrate the holiday season with the 2026 Santa Shuffle Race, an enchanting family-friendly event set against one of the region's most spectacular Christmas light displays. This unique race invites runners and walkers to traverse a scenic course that winds through over 450,000 dazzling lights and festive attractions.
Participants will not only enjoy the thrill of running or walking but also take in the magical atmosphere created by the twinkling lights and holiday-themed decorations. The event is designed for all ages, making it an ideal outing for families looking to kick off their Christmas celebrations early.
The race course spans 1.5 miles, offering a mix of flat terrain that's perfect for both casual walkers and competitive runners alike. After crossing the finish line, participants are invited to explore further by lingering in the park to snap photos with Santa Claus, indulge in hot chocolate and other holiday treats, or simply enjoy the festive sights and sounds.
Race entry fees go directly towards supporting the Rock Steady Boxing Program, which provides exercise-based fitness classes for individuals diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. By participating in this event, runners contribute not only to their own well-being but also to a cause that helps others maintain an active lifestyle despite challenging health conditions.
Don't miss out on the opportunity to pick up your Santa Shuffle sweatshirt, available for purchase at $30 each until November 8th. Remember, while the race entry fee includes access to all event activities and the festive course, any sweatshirts must be purchased separately from your registration ticket.
Join us on December 8, 2026, as we light up the season with joy, community spirit, and a dash of holiday magic at the Santa Shuffle Race.
