The 4th Annual Tree 4 Hope Turkey Day 5K will be held on Thursday, November 27th, 2014, at 9am on the former Harrisburg State Hospital Grounds. In just three years we went from only 36 participants to over 400, and we hope to have more than 500 participants this year. The funds raised at this event will buy shoes, clothes and meals for the children of Hogar Miguel Magone and Maria Auxiliadora (boys' and girls' orphanages), as well as the elders at Santiago Atitlan.
PLEASE NOTE: T-Shirt option only available if registered before November 6, 2014. A limited quantity of shirts will be available for sale at the event on a first come, first served basis.

Additional Event Details
Children 12 and under may register to run, but must be accompanied in the race by a registered adult. Participants may run with jogging strollers or dogs, however these runners are asked to begin the race at the back of the pack so as not to impede other runners. (Dogs must be leashed.) Headphones are permitted, but we ask that you keep the volume down so you can hear the other runners around you.
T-shirts are guaranteed to entries postmarked by 11/06/14. A limited number of extra t-shirts will be available at the race for purchase. Race day registration is available, but we strongly encourage you to register early to avoid waiting outside in chilly weather.
