Runners provided a spark to Hartford's kickoff of the holiday season.  

Oh what fun their first annual Reindeer Run/Walkers had on Saturday, November 11. 

These runners and walkers got to kick off the parade with a 1 mile run/walk down the Hartford Christmas Parade route. The Hartford Parks & Recreation and Hartford Area Chamber of Commerce, along with many wonderful sponsors including Hartford Community Service Inc., had a great turn out of 45 runner/walkers and raised $1000 for The United Way of Washington County. 

They are thankful to all the sponsors, participants and volunteers --- hope to see you all next year!
