December 12 @ 7:30 am - 11:30 pm
With over 30 years under our belt, the Santa Claus Shuffle is a well-planned, fun and festive event for the entire family! Get your December off to a great start by joining the crowds of costumed runners through the beautiful historic streets of Olde Towne Portsmouth, Virginia and along the scenic seawall. When you’ve finished your run, you’ll enjoy complimentary refreshments of coffee, hot chocolate, doughnuts, bagels and bananas. Running in the Santa Claus Shuffle will boost your holiday spirits – PLUS, you will be helping young people in our community who need a little extra guidance and the help of caring adults.
