The Monroe County Fairgrounds is back again for the 2nd annual Holiday Lights 5k.  For year two we are adding a race shirt, timing, and making it a true 5k event.  This unique 5k takes you through the fairgrounds holiday lights route 2.5 times and ends at the fairgrounds free stage.  Come join us and make this a new holiday family tradition! This year's event will take place Tuesday, December 23, 2025. Packet Pickup will start at 6pm and the run/walk will begin at 7pm.  Please enter the fairgrounds through gate 4 and try to arrive no later than 6:30 to allow time for the crowd to complete packet pickup.  We will try to start promptly at 7pm.

Perfect Timing is a Race Management and Timing Service that manages and times races mainly in south central Indiana. The primary goal of our services is to provide a low-cost computerized timing option for road races and cross-country races that are 500 people and under per race. We do not chip time which keeps costs down and helps you keep more money for the cause that you are partnered with.  We are now partnering with RSU and will help races set up their registration page(s) to optimize your race's potential to get the most sign ups possible, streamline your race day check in and registration as well as enhance your fundraising opportunities through their software options.
