The Monroe Jingle Bell Run features a half-marathon and a 5K, aiming to promote an active lifestyle while supporting local Scouting programs. The event will take place in Forsythe Park, with proceeds benefiting Scouts in Northeast and Central Louisiana. Funds raised will support at-risk youth programs, scholarships to Camp T.L. James and Camp Attakapas, and ensure that every youth, regardless of background, has the opportunity to participate in Scouting.
