Get ready for the highly anticipated Sweetwater Mission Santa Run 5K, now set to take place on Saturday, December 12, 2026, in the heart of Powder Springs, Cobb. This fun-filled, family-friendly event invites participants of all ages to join in on a spirited 5K run or walk, celebrating the holiday season while supporting a noble cause.

The Sweetwater Mission Santa Run aims to benefit Sweetwater Mission, an organization dedicated to stabilizing families by preventing hunger and homelessness through education and employment opportunities since 1968. Participants are encouraged to don festive outfits, making the event a vibrant showcase of holiday cheer. In addition to the $35 registration fee, which includes an event t-shirt and a pair of stylish Bombas socks, attendees can contribute to the community by bringing canned food items to support those in need. Young runners under the age of 12 who require a winter coat will also receive one at no cost. Plus, this dog-friendly event means you can bring your furry friends along for the fun. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to make a difference while enjoying a fantastic day out with family and friends!
