Press release from City of Hendersonville:
The City of Hendersonville’s Wellness Committee will be hosting their annual Turkey Trot 5k Thanksgiving morning, November 23. The Trot is a run/walk event open to all ages, all fitness levels and all family members! The 5k starts in front of City Hall on Thanksgiving morning at 8:30 and travels through downtown ending back at City Hall. The entry fee is $11 which includes a t-shirt. This is a non-sanctioned event – we’re here for fun and exercise. Event is rain or shine, sleet or snow!
Registrations received by November 6 will be guaranteed their t-shirt size. After that, no promises. Volunteers are needed and will receive a free t-shirt.
Four prizes will be given prior to the start for those pre-registered: oldest participant, best Thanksgiving themed costume, farthest traveled, and family with the most participants.
So bring the kids, bring grandma, bring the dog. Be part of this fun event before sitting down to your Thanksgiving meal.
