Hundreds of red-suited revelers lined up along Pier Plaza and The Strand on Saturday morning for the 7th Annual Santa Stroll, a festive 5K benefiting Mychal's Learning Place.
The nonprofit serves youth and young adults with developmental disabilities, helping them build skills for independent living. This year's event featured a pet costume contest, live entertainment, and the traditional arrival of Santa himself before participants headed north toward Manhattan Beach and back.
From pint-sized Santas to four-legged elves, the morning brought out the community's holiday spirit—one stride at a time
