About this race
Mark your calendars and plan to join us for the fourth annual Pell City Rotary Club Jingle Bell Run on Saturday, December 12, 2026, at Pell City's picturesque Lakeside Park.
This year, your participation will help us run to make a difference for our local veterans. Proceeds from the Jingle Bell Run will benefit the Col. Robert L. Howard State Veterans Home in Pell City, helping create a fully handicap-accessible garden for our nation’s heroes. The planned garden will include raised planter beds, an herb garden, and a beautiful flower garden with water features—creating a peaceful place where veterans of all mobility levels can garden, gather, connect, and thrive. When you register, you’re not just signing up for a race; you’re helping us honor the veterans who have given so much to our country.
