From the Organizer

Welcome to the annual Turkey Day 5k in Caldwell, Idaho’s favorite Thanksgiving Day tradition.

Turkey Day 5K is a whole family fun run designed to kick off your day with fun, energy, and community. Bring the whole "Flock" and run or walk together on Thanksgiving morning!

2025 marks the 15th year that the event benefits both the Boise Rescue Mission and Camp Rainbow Gold. As Boise continues to grow, so does the need for the services these organizations provide. Just by showing up you are already helping us contribute to these great organizations – but you can do more: bring extra canned food, make a donation directly to these groups, or better yet, donate a few hours of your time volunteering with them and you’ll both be rewarded.

Thank you again for joining us in 2025 and Happy Thanksgiving!

Please consider volunteering too!

If you cannot race this year, please join us as a volunteer.  Even if you are racing, consider one of the pre-race day volunteer positions for the Caldwell or Boise events or even both.
