Celebrate Thanksgiving with family, friends, and our Ridgefield community at the annual Ridgefield Public Schools Foundation Turkey Trot! It’s the perfect opportunity to slow down, enjoy time together, and kick off your holiday with a fun, active tradition.
This year’s 9th Annual Turkey Trot, presented by the Cowlitz Indian Tribe, Columbia Credit Union, & Ridgefield Dental Care, will take place on Thursday, November 27th, starting with the Drumstick Dash—a short run for children ages 5 and under and not yet in kindergarten —at 8:45 am. The main event, a 5K run/walk, follows at 9:00 am. Both events will begin and end at Union Ridge Elementary School in downtown Ridgefield.
While the Turkey Trot is a fun run/walk without a formal timer, participants are encouraged to enjoy the spirit of the event and work up an appetite for their Thanksgiving feast.
Race packet pick up and in-person registration will be held on Wednesday, November 26th, from 4:00 to 6:00 pm, and again on race day from 7:45 to 8:45 am in the Union Ridge Elementary School Gym. A limited number of extra T-shirts will be available for purchase during in-person registration.
To ensure you get a race T-shirt, please register by Thursday, November 13th. Additionally, we encourage participants to bring nonperishable food items to packet pick-up for donation to the Ridgefield Family Resource Center. Each item donated will earn you a ticket for a chance to win $100 in local restaurant gift cards.
All proceeds from the event will be equally shared between the Ridgefield Public Schools Foundation and the Ridgefield Family Resource Center, making this a great way to give back to our community while embracing the Thanksgiving spirit. See you there!
