Join us for a great start to the holiday season!! This is a 3 mile run. Try and catch Santa and Mrs. Claus. The first runner to catch them will win a prize. Everyone running the 3 mile Santa Chase will receive a tech shirt and medal. There will also be a Elf 1 mile fun run for the kids. Run with Santa's elves. Every child will receive a medal (different from the 3 mile run) and goodies from Santa as they cross the finish.
Proceeds from this racec will benefit Jared Ornoski. In November 2014 Jared visited the doctor who determined that a lump on his lymph node needed to be biopsied. The results came back Monday, January 5, 2015, positive for Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.
Treatment is inevitable and will involve chemotherapy and radiation. This amazing young man is starting one of the most tenuous medical treatments we have, and he is scared. His family is scared. Jared’s mom will take off work to be by his side, there will be unexpected expenses, and there will be medical costs that exceed what the insurance will cover.
At 17 years old, Jared is an exceptional young man. He is an avid outdoorsman who respects the balance of nature and enjoys hunting with firearms and archery while harvesting deer, javelina, and turkey.
Jared is involved in his school, Phoenix Christian, as an athlete, a member of the Theatre Club and National Honor Society.
