Lions Club Reindeer Run

This winter 5K is sure to put you in the holiday spirit – in fact, we even encourage it! Come out in your best Santa hats or assortment of jingle bells and Run Run Rudolph to the finish line! The first 1,250 runners receive a long sleeve tech t-shirt and antlers, and all participants will receive a finisher’s medal.

Wheaton Lions’ Club Charities primarily supports programs that serve the visually and hearing impaired, programs that help people with diabetic related health issues, and many local social service groups.
