Organiser's Description
Running of the Turkeys was founded in 2010 by local runners and church members wanting to bring a family-friendly Thanksgiving run to Yorks historic downtown and to give runners an opportunity to give back to their community.
Runners can drop off non perishable items to donate to PATH during packet pick up on Wednesday, November 26 or on the morning of the race.
People Attempting to Help, or PATH, will receive the proceeds and donations along with the Grace and Mercy Soup Kitchen of the Wesley United Methodist Church and YSD1 Education Foundation. With partner grocery stores buying less food and therefore donating less, PATHs inventory is at an all time low, while its client base continues to grow. Started in 1982 by the Western York County Christian Ministers Association, PATH has been serving the citizens of York and its outlying environs for 25 years. The not for profit organization includes a food pantry and associated thrift store and provides emergency aid for utilities and other needs for those in crisis.

SHIRTS ARE ONLY GUARANTEED IF REGISTERED BY NOVEMBER 2. INVENTORY AND SHIPPING ARE PUSHING DEADLINES EARLIER THAN NORMAL.
