Are finisher medals given to all participants?
I can’t make packet pick up, can I send someone to pick up my packet for me?
Can I bring a stroller?
Yes, of course! Bring the entire family while you’re at it. We ask that strollers stay towards the back of the pack for the safety of your family and our runners.
I have a question that isn’t answered here
Additional questions should be emailed to info@dangibbonsturkeytrot.org

No, but you can! Since the Turkey Trot raises money to feed the hungry, many people register their small children.
