5K Launches Turkey Day
Written By: Ann Self - The Village Green | Issue: 2018/11 - November
The turkey, cornbread dressing, pumpkin pie, football, and family time…so many reasons to love Thanksgiving! Did we mention pie? Each family has its own activities and traditions to look forward to the holiday.
This year, The Village Green is adding to that offering with a 5K Run/Walk turkey trot, Gobble On the Green. The Thanksgiving Day run will begin at 9:00 A.M. Thursday, November 22 at The Village Green Commons on Frank Allen Road.
Early bird registration for Gobble On the Green is $25, including a race t-shirt through November 10. Late registration, including race day, is $30 with a t-shirt while supplies last. A one-mile fun run for children ages 5-10 years beginning around 10:00 A.M. The fun run is free with registration with t-shirts pre-purchased separately. In addition to age group awards, prizes will be given for the most creative and holiday festive race attire.
