As we offer an entry option (“Eco-Entry”) to provide your own (re-usable) costume we are providing some simple guidance and a few rules on suitable “dress code” for the Lincoln Santa Fun Run.
- Well it’s a Santa Fun Run so please come dressed as a Santa ! We can cope with the occasional reindeer or elf but the “sea of red Santas” is part of the great spectacle which we all enjoy so much each year
- Please come dressed (predominantly) in Red
For ALL runners taking part:
- wear your runner number provided on your front
- no runner number = no entry and no medal !
- any other sign or message (eg a “thankyou”, “in memory of” or charity logo / message) should be worn on your back
- street collections (buckets or tins) are legally required to have a permit from Lincoln City Council
And a few simple don’ts – your costume, any accessory, sign, wording or image displayed MUST NOT:
- be offensive – in particular no representations of racism, hatred, violence, nudity or pornography
- present any political or religious viewpoint
- comprise a national flag (of any nation)
- present any personal or controversial views which the organisers consider would detract from the charitable, community, family and fun nature of the event
- risk harm to any participant or spectator (i) make sure you can see and hear around you (ii) ensure any accessories or props are not a risk to your own or other’s safety
- flags and banners are not permitted for safety reasons
- over ear or in ear headphones/earphones should not be worn, bone headphones (eg Aftershokz) can be worn. You must be able to hear event marshalls instructions.
Note: the organisers retain the right to refuse entry to the event to anyone considered by the organisers not meeting the above code or behaving in a manner which may risk harm to others, is offensive or detracts from the charitable, community, family and fun nature of the event
If you are taking part with a dog you must also follow the rules displayed when ordering the dog’s entry
If you want to take part with a sleigh or other structure you MUST have advance permission and MUST follow certain conditions. Please contact us to discuss.
Thanks for your understanding. Have fun !
