THE HISTORY OF SANTA’S 5K RUN/WALK
Festival of Trees Board member, Alisha Saulsbury because involved with the Festival of Trees over 25 years ago when she and her oldest son baked and sold cookies in the Gold Room during the Festival, while onlookers admired the beautiful display of decorated trees. A dedicated runner, Alisha thought that having a 5k would be a nice addition to the weekend of events, allowing families to participate in this run/walk all while raising money for Talbot Hospice.
