About this race
The Halo Foundation brings you our annual Halo's Santa Festival
The Halo Foundation financially supports Orleans County residents who are dealing with Cancer. There are no paid employees and 100% of the proceeds go to the community. All expenses are covered by our community partners who sponsor the events.
Our co-host for this years Festival is Community Nation Bank, and the Orleans County Sheriff's Department. Without them we wouldn't be able to provide each racer with the festive Santa Suits, and keep the entry fee at a consistent price year after year. We also have our community Sponsors who help us put together Santa's Workshop; Memphremagog Press, Blanchard Oil, North Country Federal Credit Union, Century 21, and more signing on everyday. These amazing business support of each year!!!
The festival includes Santa's workshop, where you can participate in cookie decorating and ornament making. Children will also be able to write a letter to Santa and send it through the magical North Pole mail box. For all participants this is included in your registration fee, for families not running they can participate for a fee of $5.00 per member. Santa is flying in from the North Pole to make sure he is available to all the children, so they can tell him their biggest wishes. This is a family friendly event and we encourage walking. All participants will have a slice of pizza and beverage waiting for them at the end of the run donated by Village Pizza of Orleans, and delicious vanilla creamies covered in crushed candy canes served by Sweet Scoops. Top 3 men's, women's, boys and girls finishers will be awarded some great prizes. We will also be selling raffle tickets for your chance to win an 8' stocking full of gifts.
Sponsor information will be included as they are confirmed!
Happy Holidays
