Fall River Re-Creation, the Greater Fall River Fitness
Challenge, and Partners
for a Healthier Community, Inc., sponsored the Third Annual Jingle Run
from Kennedy Park to Government Center on December 7th. Kicking off half an
hour before the annual Children's Holiday Parade, proceeds for the event went to help
sponsor the Parade. Runners and walkers were encouraged to wear holiday apparel and to bring jingle bells to make lots of noise on their
trip up South Main Street. Fitness Challenge organizer Annemarie Holly led the group of runners at the staring line signing everyone in. Either walking or
running, everyone completed the trip and were offered a free bus ride back to the start of the parade of its start! Click here for
