All who live in Snohomish are invited to come help chase the notorious Grinch out of town. No one wants the Grinch around to spoil this holiday season. Whether you plan to run in the race or just cheer on the participants, this is sure to be a fun time for the whole community. The event takes place on Sunday, December 6th, 2015 in historic downtown Snohomish. Runners and walkers will begin their 5K or 10K journey at “Cheermeister Village” next to the Snohomish Visitor Information Center. The course is mostly flat and is out and back, meandering along the Riverfront Trail, traveling through Cady Park, and then meeting the Centennial Trail.
All of the runners will return to the finish line that will be complete with hot chocolate, yummy snacks, entertainment, and plenty of opportunities for photos. All participants will receive a swag bag with a t-shirt and official medal. Kids who live in Snohomish will have the chance to help out too. Children aged 13 years and younger can take part in the Kids Dash, which is just a half mile to Cady Park and back. Parents may go along and all participants will get hot chocolate, cider, cookies, and a medal for helping to chase that silly Grinch out of town. Both the adult and children’s races are sold out, but there are plenty of chances to volunteer or just come out to cheer on friends and family. Get more information about Chase the Grinch.
