Details

Lace up your shoes and dig out your most festive gear as the Jingle Bell Fun Run/Walk returns on December 5!

This fun, free, approximately 1-mile run/walk begins at 6:30 p.m. at the corner of Ashman and Main Streets in Downtown Midland. It’s not a timed race, so people of all ages are welcome to take their time and come dressed in their best festive gear (holiday sweaters, Santa hats, cool socks, etc.). All registered participants will receive a jingle bell bracelet to wear during the event. Furry friends and strollers are welcome – the more, the merrier!

Instead of a registration fee, participants are encouraged to bring nonperishable food items to be donated to Midland County Food Assistance Network for the holidays. This local pantry can always use peanut butter, crackers, mac & cheese, ramen noodles, any soups, spaghetti sauce & noodles, cereal & canned fruits.

Our downtown businesses are caught up in the season of giving! Stop in at the following businesses and help them raise non-perishable food donations:
- Brinstar Arcade Bar & Grill: Jingle Bell Fun Run/Walk attendees get $1.00 off all eggrolls, cocktails, and beer (excludes flights) from 5PM to close!
- Grape Beginnings Winery
- Health Hut: Donate non-perishable food items to Health Hut and receive $2.00 off your next purchase!
- Heather ‘n Holly
- Joyful Tantrum & Serendipity Road
- Molasses Smokehouse: Receive 10% off your bill with a donation of a non-perishable food donation
- Tavern on Main
- The H Hotel: Stop by the H Hotel’s hot chocolate station to warm up during the run/walk!
