Forest Lake Rotary Turkey Trot - November 26, 2026
The Rotary Club of Forest Lake is hosting the 9th Annual Turkey Trot on November 26, 2026 in Forest Lake, MN. The event includes timed and untimed running options and supports local food assistance through a portion of the proceeds.
Distances:
- 5K
- 1 Mile Fun Run
Check-in is at the Forest Lake City Center (1408 Lake St S, Forest Lake, MN 55025) and the course uses the Hardwood Creek Trail behind the building. Participants must check in to receive a number bib and the Turkey Trot stocking cap. Participants who register by November 1 are guaranteed a 2026 stocking cap. Registration closes on November 25 at 11:59 PM CT. Registration and integrated race timing are provided through UltraSignup; a service fee from that platform is added at checkout.
Entry fees are listed as Adults $35 and Students (ages 7-18) $20. Children 6 and under are free. Walkers, parents with strollers, and leashed dogs are welcome; if a dog does not do well with other dogs, large groups, children, or loud noise, organizers recommend leaving the dog at home for safety.
There are no refunds and entries may not be transferred, deferred, or applied to another event. If public health or other conditions force cancellation, the event may become virtual and race items will be available for pick up on Thanksgiving morning at the Forest Lake City Center. Participants will be contacted if changes occur. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
