Title

Approval of TAD Center 5K Reindeer Run to become part of City of Crossville Christmas Parade Day activities

Body

Last year the City of Crossville waived street closures fees for the TAD Center with the agreement that was the last year the race would be run, as it was a part of the Healthier Tennessee program. The plan was to discontinue the race because of the fees associated with the street closures.  The TAD Center has been approached about doing the race again and is requesting a partnership with the City of Crossville to “adopt” the race as part of the Christmas Day Parade activities.  The TAD Center would handle the registration, work the race, provide prizes, publicize the race, and purchase t-shirts with both the City’s name and TAD Center’s name on them in exchange for the fees being waived for the street closures. 

 

The TAD Center administration feels it is important to start and end the race from the TAD Center for exposure to their facility, as well as provide a place for the presentation of prizes and a place for those wishing to observe the race to gather.
