Seeing so many families come together for the Reindeer Fun Run each year puts a huge smile on all of our faces, and with the continuous support of our sponsors and participants, we are always looking for new ways to make the Run even better.

We are proud to say that at the conclusion of 2015’s Reindeer Fun Run, we raised $50,000 for the Boys & Girls Club of the Sandhills!

While most runners decide to run on their own, there is a selection of runners who decide to run as part of a team with family, friends, and/or coworkers.

Well, that makes sense actually, we all know reindeer fly on Christmas. But it isn’t Christmas yet, and this guy seems to be pretty flashy! Plus, he’s spending a lot of time circling Moore County. It must be the 2015 Reindeer Fun Run mascot–now his alter-ego. Finally, the photo of the deer going into a phone booth makes sense.

The Sly Fox has been a sponsor for years, so it is no wonder the reindeer is visiting, but we wonder what he’s going to do in the phone booth? Call Santa? I guess we will have to wait and see…
