Santa Dash and Festive Fun Run
This event is a family festive run held at Lingwood Village Hall. It raises funds for the Mini Donks - Miniature Donkeys for Wellbeing. The Mini Donks will visit the event.
Races take place in the hall grounds and on surrounding trail footpaths. All participants receive a medal. To reduce costs and increase charitable donations, the races will not be timed. The minimum age for the 5 km race is 11 years. Transfers to another runner are available until 09/12/2026. Entries are non-refundable and cannot be deferred. Permit ARC/26/0208 applies.
The event includes a community cafe called Hug-a-Mug offering snacks, home-made cakes and refreshments. A new feature for 2026 is an Inflatable Fancy Dress Dash, a free short dash for participants wearing an inflatable costume; participants may change before the main races if they wish.
