Do you have a fast crawler? This year's Santa to the Sea Race will host the 2nd annual Diaper Dash Race for babies age 0-1 who can crawl at Channel Islands Harbor on Saturday, December 13 at 2pm.

The Diaper Dash race will take place  at the Marine Emporium, 3600 S. Harbor Blvd. Entry is just $10 per baby and only 35 spots are open.

There will be seven races with five babies in each race. The race is being capped at 35 babies. The seven winners will advance to the championship. The course will be about ten feet long on a small stage inside the Finish Live Festival and Race Expo tent. Coaches stand at each end of the stage: one starts the baby off and the other cheers the baby to the finish line.

Babies must crawl. Any standing or walking and the babies will be disqualified.

The winning baby will be awarded a trophy.

Santa to the Sea is a nonprofit event born out of a desire to give back to the community. What started in 2003 as a toy drive to celebrate the relocation of the world’s largest Santa Claus from Carpinteria to Oxnard, has grown into a robust running event, toy drive, and community fundraiser. Santa to the Sea includes a sanctioned half marathon and a 2-person half marathon relay, plus a 5K run, 1K kid's fun run, Finish Line Festival and Race Expo.

The Santa to the Sea Scholarship Fund partners with the Oxnard College Foundation and the Gene Haas Foundation to award $500 scholarships to local high school students and adults continuing their education at Oxnard College.
