Come out with friends and families on Saturday, November 25th and run off your Turkey dinners at our 17TH ANNUAL certified 5 k Turkey Trot. The race/fitness walk starts at 8:30AM on historic Main Street in Matawan and continues through the hilly and pretty Matawan neighborhoods. Race party starts and ends at Terhune Park where we will be awarding medals, dancing to music and taking selfies at our photo backdrop.
