Jingle Bell 5k Run/Walk - Metuchen

The Jingle Bell Run is a fun, festive 5k to kick off your holidays by helping children & adults living with arthritis - the #1 cause for disability in the United States. We get about 1,000 participants & Everyone who comes out registered gets bells for their sneakers, a long-sleeved commemorative t-shirt and runner bib. Our participants don Santa hats, reindeer antlers & even candy-striped tights...when the gun goes off you just hear all of the bells through the streets! We even have a Santa Chase for kids 12 & under!

We need:
Runners, Walkers, Team Captains, "Day of Event" volunteers, decorators, crowd enhancers to help cheer our runners on and volunteers to help with planning in the months leading up to the race to help make our event amazing!

  • All volunteers will receive a t-shirt and light fare for participating.
