Christmas in the Park

Christmas in the Park is a community road race held at Deming Park. The event offers options for adults and youth and includes a short youth run called the Reindeer Romp.

Distances offered:

  • 5K run/walk for adults and youth
  • 1 mile Reindeer Romp for youth

The event benefits the nonprofit Clothe a Child, with 50% of proceeds designated for that organization. Registration has a stated deadline to receive a participant t-shirt of Sunday, November 30. Packet pick up is scheduled for the morning of the race.

Awards are given for the 5K competition, including overall awards, age group awards, and walker awards. Age group awards are based on five year age divisions. The event notes that participants who register as walkers should not run, so competitive walkers are not disadvantaged.

Sponsors listed for the event include Chick-fil-A of Terre Haute as the presenting sponsor along with Morris Trucking, Pacesetter Sports, Riddell National Bank, Athletico, Graphic FX, Gibson Realty and Appraisals, Murphy Urban & Associates, MB Landscaping and Lawn Care, Sackrider & Company, Team Tingley State Farm, JKO Media Group, the Terre Haute Conventions and Visitors Bureau, and Terre Haute Parks and Recreation.
