The Grassy Knob Fire Association Auxiliary invites the public to the 9th annual Don Gammie Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving Day at Lake Leatherwood Park at the Ball Fields. Proceeds benefit the Grassy Knob Volunteer Fire Association.
The race starts at 8:30 a.m. and is sanctioned by USA Track and Field. Top runners in the 5 kilometer trail run will be presented with medals and a one-mile walk/run is available to those who prefer a less challenging course.
Entry fee is $20 for adults and $15 for children under 12. Register at TurkeyTrotAR.com or contact Kay Schriner at rkschriner@gmail.com for an entry form. Register by Nov. 13 for a free t-shirt. Participants will be required to sign a waiver the day of the race.
