Turkey Trot

The Thanksgiving 5K Walk/Run for the Y

Run. Fundraise. Donate.

Every year thousands from across Central Maryland join their neighbors for the Ys annual Turkey Trot 5K, a fun Thanksgiving tradition that appeals to families, individuals, runners, and leisurely strollers! Proceeds from these events go to support children and families in need.

This Thanksgiving we need your help more than ever before!

We have suddenly experienced a 200% increase in requests for assistance from families who can’t otherwise afford to send their young children to a Y Journeys early childhood preschool program. Young children who are left out of quality preschool programs like the Y’s, are almost destined to be academically and socially left behind.

Please help raise urgently needed funds for children of struggling families in our Y community!

 

WHERE: Towson Family Center Y – 600 W. Chesapeake Ave., Towson
WHEN: 
Thanksgiving, Thursday, November 22 @ 7 AM
WHAT: Towson 5K Turkey Trot for the Y Centers of Central Maryland – In Center Rate: $30 – Race Day Rate: $35  – For more information about the Towson Turkey Trot, please contact Beverly Landis @ 410-823-8870 or beverlylandis@ymaryland.org.
