Kick Off Thanksgiving Day at Wicomico Recreation’s Turkey Trek 5K

2011-Turkey1

Gear up for your Thanksgiving feast with Wicomico Recreation’s 6th Annual Turkey Trek 5K on Thursday, November 27 at Pemberton Historical Park in Salisbury. The race will begin promptly at 9 a.m. and wind through Pemberton’s beautiful forests, meadows and wetlands. The course is mostly flat, with one or two small hills – a perfect run (or walk) for participants of all levels.  

 

Awards will be given to top-finishing males and females in multiple age groups. Participants can enjoy healthy refreshments as well as pie afterwards – it is Thanksgiving after all!

 

Pre-registration is open now through November 24 for $25 per person. Register before November 10 to guarantee a race t-shirt. New this year, long sleeved shirts are available for an additional $5. Online registration and more information is available at www.pembertonpark.org/annual-turkey-trek.html.

 

On-site registration will also be available for $30 per person the morning of the event beginning at 7:30 a.m.

 

All proceeds from the race will go towards Pemberton Historical Park’s Environmental Education Programs.
