Tinsel Trot : Save the Texas Theatre
The Tinsel Trot is a holiday community run and walk held in front of the historic Texas Theatre in McGregor on December 5, 2026. The event offers organized distances for running and walking and aims to raise funds to support restoration of the theater.
Participants receive commemorative shirts, a goody bag with assorted items, and exclusive theater-branded swag. Awards and recognitions will be presented, including medals by age group, trophies for best holiday costumes, and plaques for top fundraising teams and sponsors. The event welcomes families, strollers, and leashed pets.
Local businesses are invited to form teams and sponsor the event. Organizers encourage teams of five or more and offer a fundraising incentive: any team that raises $1,000 or more will have its team name printed on the back of team t-shirts. A range of sponsorship levels is available, with listed options including Title Sponsor, T-Shirt Sponsor, Awards Sponsor, Pet Sponsor, and Media Sponsor, each with associated visibility benefits.
Registration is offered at a stated fee of $35 per person; that fee includes the event goody bag and theater swag. The Tinsel Trot is presented as a community fundraising activity that combines seasonal celebration with support for a local cultural landmark.
