As part of the new Sandhills Race Series, this year’s 4th annual charitable event held on December 4, 2010 attracted over 1,950 participants, becoming the largest running event in the area.

“The Reindeer Fun Run has quickly grown to be more than a race. It’s become a holiday tradition that brings our community together to celebrate the season and generate funds for a worthy cause ” said Kate Petsolt, Founder and Director of the annual 5K, 10K and ½ mile Egg Nog Jog, “One hundred percent of proceeds from our event are donated to the Boys and Girls Clubs of the Sandhills to help provide a safe place for our local youth to learn and grow. This year, due to an increase in both sponsorships and participants, I am proud to announce that the Reindeer Fun Run is able to make a record donation of $23,000.”

The Reindeer Fun Run major sponsor is Trident Marketing. Other level sponsors include: Chick-fil-A, Steve Jones Honda, Dr. Michael Henry Orthodontics, Pinehurst Radiology, Saunders Orthodontics, Southern Pines Physical Therapy, Crescent State Bank, iTennis.com, Rainbow Cycles, Sayer Photography, PineStraw Magazine and The O’Neal School. “Support from our local businesses is critical for hosting our festive, family fun event.

New event features for 2010 included the Blitzen Bash, a pre-race party at the Campbell House, a scenic 10K course through Southern Pines horse country and enhanced race day park activities. The Blitzen Bash included donations from Aldena Fyre Floral Design, Ashten’s, Ironwood, Rhett’s, Sly Fox, Sweet Feed and The Wine Cellar and Tasting Room. Park activities included a warm-up from Anjali Yoga, a Chick-fil-A Kids Zone offering fun such as 4-wheel pony rides, carnival games and photos with Santa, and post-race live music from a FirstFriday favorite, Peyton Tochterman. Panera Bread was also on-site race day to provide refreshments to the over 150 volunteers assisting with race activities.

“The Reindeer Fun Run shows our boys and girls how much their community cares. From the pre-race nutrition and fitness workshops offered at our Club to the cheers at the finish line, the Reindeer Fun Run instills a sense of accomplishment and offers healthy fun for our youth, families and staff,” commented Caroline Eddy, Executive Director of the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Sandhills. “We enjoy participating in the event and greatly appreciate the sponsors, volunteers and community support that allows Reindeer Fun Run to benefit our programs and services.”
