Sandhills Race Series - Shout Out!
We are thrilled that the Sandhills Race Series, born at a Reindeer Fun Run meeting in 2010, has grown to be such a success. This year 14 races (maybe more) will be a part of the Spring & Fall series, and we are looking to expand into an Adventure Series too! This is just a “SHOUT OUT” to all of those who help to make the SRS so much fun to be a part of! Without their hard work, dedication to their events and the causes the serve, and a desire to help each other, the SRS wouldn’t be

2013 Reindeer Fun Run Logo?
We know it is early, but believe it or not May is when we usually start sharing the Reindeer Fun Run on event calendars, creating forms, and getting the website updated. And May is just around the corner. But in order to do that, we have to have our logo figured out. We have changed the logo each year, and we want to continue that tradition. We’d love to know what you think we should do to this year’s logo!
Here is a look back…

Important Race Info Q&A
It is almost here! We wanted to pass along some information that we get asked about a lot…
Packet Pick-up
Packet pick-up starts Friday at noon. Your best bet is to let the first rush get through and come between 1:00 and 8:00 (please don’t come early, we won’t be ready). This year we have moved packet pick-up to Page Memorial Fellowship Hall which is right at the starting line on 104 South Poplar Street. We will also be collecting Cans & Coats for K2 Solutions Annual Drive at packet-pickup. Please bring what you can.

On-site Child Care from Rugg Rats
The Reindeer Fun Run will be partnering with Rugg Rats to provide on-site child care. Trying to help out those parents who want to both run while the kids play. Do it! And then let the kids run the Egg Nog Jog and play in the Chick-fil-A Kids Zone. We’re still working out the details, but we will keep you posted…
