The 6th Annual Tree 4 Hope Turkey Day 5K will be held on Thursday, November 24th, 2016, at 9am on the former Harrisburg State Hospital Grounds. 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 served by the Santiago Atitlan Elder Center. Once again our goal is to raise enough money to also help fund the construction of a school for impoverished girls in Guatemala who would otherwise have no access to an education.
PLEASE NOTE: T-shirts can be purchased for $15 if registration is completed by November 3, 2016. 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 available for purchase for $15 when registration is completed by 11/03/16. 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.
The event benefits Tree 4 Hope, a nonprofit organization committed to providing a bright future of long term hope for children and their families in Africa, Central America, and around the world.
