Information

Storm Diego has made a muddy mess of the Cottonwood Trail and with rain in the forecast for Friday, sadly we are calling off this year’s Jingle Bell 5k. With help from our friends Little River Roastingng and Hub City Writers Projects we are still collecting goods for Hope Center for Childrenren White Christmas. Stop by Little River Roasting at 460 Marion Avenue or the Hub City Book Store at 186 West Main Street sometime this week to drop off your donations. Grab a cup of coffee and a book while you’re at it! Sorry to disappoint and we hope you understand. Alternative Cottonwood Fun Run 2019 TBD.

Bundle up and join us for one of Spartanburg’s favorite holiday traditions — the SPACE Jingle Bell 5K on The Cottonwood Trail. Come out Saturday, December 15th – race time 9 a.m., to celebrate one of Spartanburg’s oldest and most popular nature preserves. Pre-register here or show up at the Sydnor Road entrance to the Trail at 8am on race day.

Runners are welcome to donate to SPACE if desired but instead of a registration fee, we’re asking folks to help us collect goods for The Hope Center for Children’s “White Christmas” drive. The Hope Center helps build stable healthy families providing children a safe place from abuse and neglect. Please bring any of the following with you to the race: toilet paper, paper towels, tissues, deodorant, toothpaste, free and clear laundry detergent.

Many thanks to the JM Smith Foundationfor supporting this event. Hope to see you on the Trail, Santa wear and jingle bells encouraged!

Please note: This is a fun run in support of the Hope Center. We won’t be timing the race or handing out any prizes. We hope you’ll still come out, support a great cause, and run with your community at Cottonwood Trail.
