From the Organizer

Join us for The Village at Mill Pond's first annual Turkey Trot! 

Lace up your sneakers, grab your neighbors and your little turkeys, and come kick off the holiday season together with a nice 1-miler around our beautiful community. Run, jog, walk, or strut like a turkey; there are no wrong moves! We'll be meeting at the Big Green on the corner of 23rd and Village to kick things off right at 9:00 AM!

We'll be providing warm cider, coffee, and treats at the start to enjoy during your walk! We'll be out there rain or shine and we hope to see you there! 

Note: Registration not required to join (though it does help us plan), but commemorative t-shirts are available for those who register before 11/20!
