Dover Turkey Trot
The Dover Turkey Trot is a Thanksgiving Day community 5K held at Garrison Elementary School on Shaw’s Lane in Dover, NH. The event is organized as a combined running and walking event intended for runners, walkers, families and people of all ages and abilities. The course distance is 5K.
The race exists to promote a healthy lifestyle and to provide a sense of community while raising money for the Garrison School PTA. Funds support student enrichment activities, family and community events, classroom supplies, artist-in-residency programs and other needs outside the school district budget. The Turkey Trot serves as the single largest annual fundraiser for the PTA and is listed as the final race of the Dover Race Series.
Entry fees are stated as $25 with a reduced fee of $12 for grade 4 and under; on race day the fees are listed as $30 and $15 for grade 4 and under. The event notes volunteer opportunities for race day and provides information about bib pickup and other race-day details. The organizer acknowledges a range of sponsors and corporate partners who support the event. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
