From the Organizer
To everyone who came out to run, walk, or cheer — thank you for supporting Occoneechee State Park and helping keep our community vibrant!
We are overwhelmed with gratitude for your support, which made this year’s Turkey Trot such a success! Your generosity and participation help move forward important projects at Occoneechee State Park — from the ADA-compliant fishing dock to the new 18-hole Disc Golf Course, and many other meaningful improvements that benefit families and the community all year long.
Thanks to your contributions, we were also proud to deliver 271 pounds of canned food to the local food bank.
Because of YOU, we are able to create more opportunities for outdoor recreation, environmental education, and family-friendly events.
The outpouring of support was truly overwhelming and is sincerely appreciated. We value your feedback, and we truly appreciate your patience as we keep working to make the Turkey Trot experience even better for everyone.
Sincerely,
The Friends of Occoneechee State Park
