Volunteers

Thanksgiving Day is a great day to volunteer and we appreciate your help!  We have new policies to keep everyone socially distant but useful for the staging of this IN Person, Live Race!

Avoid the hectic shopping rituals and spend the morning with Turkey Trotters.  It's a fun, stress free way to get you in holiday mode.  We offer lots of time slots to fit your schedule and can make adjustments for large volunteer groups.  Every volunteer will receive an official Turkey Trot event shirt,and plenty of refreshments. 

Each volunteer must Register themselves personally to voluneteer.  You can't have someone sign up for you since there's a waiver to check off for the event .  Be sure you pick the correct timeslot that fits your schedule.  Limited changes can be done by contacting us directly through our contact us link.  Thank you in advance for your participation and consideration.  We look forward to working with you and having a great time at our Turkey Trot!

Arrive early to check into Volunteer Tent located next to the stage. Leave valuable at home and please keep textig and phone calls to a minimum. 

Parking is $5 so plan to be dropped off or park by 5:30 am and get a pass when you check in.  No free parking passes will be offered after 5:30am
