Organiser's description

Presented by Max Credit Union, Cousin Eddy's 5K starts at 9 am, followed by the Grinch Chaser, our Kids 1-Mile Fun Run at 10 am. After, cool off with a dip in the bottom pond for our second annual Polar Plunge at 10:45 am. Guaranteed more excitement than a one-year Jelly of the Month Club membership! Runners will receive overall and 5-year age group awards for the top finishers.

The Polar Plunge is included with all 5K and Grinch Chaser signups. If you would like to participate in the Polar Plunge only, that is fine too! All participants will receive a commemorative event shirt if registered by December 5th. If you register after December 5th, a t-shirt is not guaranteed.

Dont forget a towel and a change of clothes!

Race packet pick-up is Friday, December 13th, from 3 to 6, adjacent to the Outfitter.

Please note that this event will be held rain or shine! In extreme inclement weather, we reserve the right to cancel the event for participant safety without refunds.
