Opportunity Village is proud to announce that long-time partner, Chippendales, will be Grand Marshal for the 2021 Las Vegas Great Santa Run on Saturday, December 4
The male revue has been a staple at Opportunity Village’s signature events for nearly 10 years, serving as both 1-Mile Marshal and entertainment at the jolly fun-run. In their new, elevated role at the event, Chippendales will be the face of the Las Vegas Great Santa Run.
“Escorting Mayor Goodman at the Great Santa Run is an event our cast at Chippendales looks forward to every year,” said Katerina Tabakhov, Director of Operations at Chippendales. “The work OV does in providing people with disabilities enrichment, empowerment, and employment opportunities is incredible and, for our cast to be acknowledged this year as the Grand Marshal for the Great Santa Run is truly an honor that is going to make this year’s event even more special for all of us at Chippendales.”
The Las Vegas Great Santa Run, presented by Circle K, features a 5k and 1-mile course where thousands of registrants decked out in Santa suits run or walk to support people with disabilities at Opportunity Village. Race day will feature three unique stages featuring a variety of entertainment partners. The stages will be emceed by Jason Feinberg and Alyssa Deitsch of FOX5 (Third Street Stage), John Katsilometes of the Las Vegas Review-Journal (Starting Line Stage), and AJ of Sunny 106.5 with MoJoe of 95.5 The Bull (After-Party Stage).
