Aberdeen Santa Run

The Aberdeen Santa Run covers 5K runs in Santa suits held in Aberdeen, South Dakota, and on Aberdeen Beach Front in Scotland. Both events are Christmas-season fun runs, not competitive races. Participants and walkers are encouraged to wear Santa suits and join other holiday characters. In South Dakota, the course is 3.1 miles through Wylie Park. Santa suits are provided for participants aged 13 and up. Proceeds benefit the Warner Public Schools Cross Country program. The Aberdeen Beach Front run takes place on the prom near Footdee. It welcomes runners, walkers, and crawlers, and collects food donations for Aberdeen Cyrenians' Food Bank.
