Christmas Star Run and Tree Lighting
The Christmas Star Run and Tree Lighting is a seasonal community event held at Christian City in Union City, Georgia. This evening event serves as a fundraiser to support various Children and Family Programs, including the Children’s Village and the Thrive graduate transition program.
The event features a running portion along with a variety of holiday-themed activities on the campus. Participants and residents can take part in an annual tree lighting ceremony. The gathering includes several festive attractions such as:
- A holiday tree lighting program
- Photo opportunities with Santa and the Coca-Cola Christmas Truck
- Refreshment stations serving hot chocolate, cookies, and s’mores at a fire pit
- On-site food options including a pizza truck
The run attracts over 100 participants annually, including youth, staff, and senior residents from the local community. The proceeds from the event contribute to social services such as foster care, adoption, and family stabilization initiatives. The campus is located on Red Oak Road, providing a centralized setting for the holiday festivities and the run. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
