Santa 5K at Cordata
The Santa 5K is a holiday-themed 5-kilometre event held at Cordata Community Park with portions of the route through Julianna Park. The event is presented as family friendly; all participants receive a Santa hat and are listed on the Nice List.
Activities around the run include a costume contest, hot cocoa, and additional family-oriented games described as reindeer games. Organizers use a third-party timing provider and each race bib includes a pre-inserted timing chip for individual race timing. Course maps and past race photos are available through the event resources.
Fees are published by date and by age group: early registration and later registration rates apply, with a separate fee for kids 12 and under and a note that kids who roll are free. Packet pick-up is scheduled the day before at Fairhaven Runners and Walkers and there is a late packet pick-up at the Cordata Park pavilion on race day.
Divisions list Male, Female, and Non-binary categories and a range of age divisions from 10 & under through 70+. Awards include prizes for the overall top three in each gender category, ribbons for top finishers in each age and gender division, and additional draw prizes distributed at the awards ceremony. Parking at Cordata Park is limited; alternative transportation or carpooling is suggested and event parking is restricted to designated areas.
