The South Berkeley Christmas 5K and Parade will be held on Sunday, December 8th. The 5K route runs through the Connections Community Church parking lot, so we are in charge of creating a CHEER TUNNEL for the runners! The race starts at 2pm and the parade (which will go right by the church) follows at 2:30pm.
Let’s make a day of it! We will have a taco bar for lunch after the 11am service, and starting at 1pm there will be Christmas-themed activity stations for all families to enjoy! Activity stations will include: cookie decorating, Christmas ornament crafts, noisemaker crafts (to use in the Cheer Tunnel), and a station to make Christmas cards for the elderly in nursing homes.
At 2pm we will make our CHEER TUNNEL and cheer on the racers! Afterward, set up some chairs and grab some hot chocolate to enjoy the parade with the family!
Other Upcoming Events:

Meet Birye and Gus the Guzzling Giver!
Kidz Connect is sponsoring Birye, a young girl from Ethiopia, through Compassion International. These funds help equip Birye with the skills and opportunities she needs to succeed — all through a local church that knows and cares for her personally. A few benefits include medical checkups, malnutrition monitoring, vocation training and education assistance.
Kids are encouraged to bring an offering every Sunday to feed Gus the Guzzling Giver, our awesome offering piggy bank, which will go directly to Birye’s needs.
