Arlington EATS Turkey Trot
The Arlington EATS Turkey Trot is a community 5K run or walk held at Hill’s Hill Field at Ed Burns Arena on Sunday, November 8, 2026. Entry for the event is $35. Strollers are welcome.
The event supports Arlington EATS, an organization that works to reduce food insecurity in Arlington. Arlington EATS reports more than 30 years of service, weekly assistance to 550 households, and the distribution of over 1 million pounds of food each year to about 3,500 neighbors.
After the 5K, the day includes food, kid-friendly activities, music, and a medal ceremony. Fundraising is part of the event; the first 500 registrants receive a free T-shirt. Top fundraising teams receive a pizza party at Arlington EATS, recognition during the medal ceremony, and yearlong bragging rights. Top youth fundraisers ages 13 and under are invited to a behind-the-scenes VIP experience at Arlington EATS that includes a Market tour, a hands-on service project, and an opportunity to see how fundraising supports local families.
The event combines a timed community fitness activity with fundraising and family-focused activities to support reliable access to healthy food for Arlington neighbors. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
