December is an exciting month in New Haven! The Elm City Elf will be making a daily appearance, the World AIDS Day Flash Mob happens next Friday, and on December 8th, the annual Christopher Martin 5k is on once again.

The 2013 Christopher Martin Christmas Run for Children kicks off on Sunday, 12/8 at 10:15am. The race starts and ends at Christopher Martin restaurant - 860 State Street. There is no race day registration so be sure to visit the official 5k page for registration details. $25 gets you race entry without a shirt, $45 gets you entry with a long sleeved t-shirt, sizes XS-XL. For reduced admission, fill out a form on the official page and donate a new, unwrapped toy. Toys will be distributed to children in New Haven who otherwise may not have a gift on Christmas. *sigh*

For the fast people, prizes are awarded to top finishers per age group. For volunteer opportunities, this event still needs volunteers! Please call 203-481-5933 for more details.

Early packet pickup available at Trailblazer - 296 Elm St. New Haven, CT on Friday, 12/6 & Saturday, 12/7, 11am-6pm.
