Registration opens for Jingle Bell Run
(CNS Local Life): The Cayman Islands Crisis Centre (CICC), a non-profit organisation that provides support and shelter to victims of domestic abuse, is hosting its annual Jingle Bell Walk/Run, set for Sunday, 9 December. The race, which offers 5K and 10K routes and is now in its 16th year, will start and finish at the Holiday Inn Resort in Safehaven. After the race, participants will get breakfast and pictures with Santa, all included within the registration fee, said a CICC press release.
All proceeds from the event will be used towards building a new shelter and the services CICC provides to support the needs of domestic abuse victims. Sponsorship packages are still available for companies and potential patrons. For more information, email CICC.
“The Jingle Bell run is always a fun occasion, with many walkers and runners donning festive gear for the race,” said Michelle Lockwood, CICC board member and chair of the fundraising committee.
“Last year we saw over 500 participants and this year we hope to top that. As always, we are grateful to our sponsors. Without their generosity we would not be able to host such a successful event which supports our non-profit service to the Cayman community.”
Registration, which costs $25 ahead of the event and $30 the day of the race, is available online at CaymanActive
