Keeping it "All Good in the Neighborhood" this year!
We will start and finish again at Marion Steele High School. The route this year has changed to keep the entire course on quiet neighborhood roads so we don't have to close down any streets! More importantly, by keeping our route in the neighborhood, more of our neighbors can cheer us on as we celebrate Christmas and raise money for Blessing House! The map below shows the new route.
For the folks doing thew one mile fun walk, the route will be on the brand new track at Steele HS! Come listen to Christmas carols while we walk and run our way to a brighter holiday for children in need!
Race Address: 450 Washington St, Amherst, OH 44001
Description
Let's begin our Christmas Eve celebration again this year by jingling through downtown Amherst, spreading joy and cheer to our community. We will also have a 1 mile Fun Walk for all the festive jinglers who want a more casual morning! After the race, please join the Community for Christmas Carols, Hot Cocoa and Christmas Cookies!
And......wait for it....... I have heard that Santa and Mrs. Claus will be there too to greet kids of all ages before they head out for a busy night!
Most importantly - 100% of race fees will go to directly to Blessing House which will help make Christmas a little brighter for many children in need! Learn more about this awesome local ministry by clicking here: https://blessinghouse.org/
Your race packets will include a Jingle Bell that each runner and walker will wear during the event so that on Christmas Eve morning, the town of Amherst will be filled with the sound of Jingle Bells! Come join the fun of this new Ohio Christmas Tradition! PS: If you ran last year, bring your jingle bell from that race to wear with your new one to show everyone you are a JATW5K! veteran!
See you there! Merry Christmas! Rev. Brian Russell
