🎄Holiday cheer is here with the return of the Vail Recreation District FUN RUN again this year! Our heartfelt appreciation to VRD for bringing forth another joyous opportunity for community members to join in helping to meet the needs of all our neighbors this holiday season.

Please register in advance at vailrec.com/register. Entry cost is $8 with a donation of food or a new, unwrapped toy for our charitable partners. All entry fees go to our charitable partners as well. We are happy to accept cash donations on race day too! 

Not interested in running but still wishing to donate, drop off your item at the start/finish area from 8 to 11 a.m. on race day. Starting in late November, we will also have donation drop-off boxes at Dobson Ice Arena, the Imagination Station and the Vail Nordic Center. Additionally, all Edward Jones locations in Eagle County (Gypsum, Eagle, Edwards and Avon) will collect food and toys starting the week of Thanksgiving.

Thank you VRD for continuing to encourage, uplift and bring merriment to all!

For more information, visit www.vailrec.com, call 970-479-2280 or email sports@vailrec.com. We can't wait to see everyone for this festive event on Sun, Dec. 15!
