It Takes Community - Volunteer Today!
Support Your Community!
If you're not a runner but still want a bit of fun and movement before the big feast, join the party by volunteering. The Turkey Day 5k could not exist without you!
All volunteers will receive a long-sleeved t-shirt and will be well fueled with coffee, hot chocolate, and pancakes!
And here’s a bonus: volunteer for Race Day Packet Pickup/Registration on Thursday, 11/28, and you’ll receive one (1) FREE adult race entries to use on race morning!
