Get ready for a fantastic Thanksgiving tradition at the Mountaineer Turkey Strut on Thursday, November 28, 2024! This exciting event will take place in the charming Mt. Vernon Courthouse Square, kicking off at 8:30 a.m. Join fellow community members for a spirited race before indulging in your holiday feast. Participants can choose from a range of distances, with individual entry costing just $30 or $100 for a family of four.

This year, the Mountaineer Turkey Strut will benefit the Summit After School Program in Mount Vernon, making it a wonderful opportunity to give back while enjoying a fun-filled day. Not only will you receive a new event T-shirt, but you'll also have a chance to win custom medals for various age categories, ranging from 0-9 to 70 and over. Don't forget to bring two canned goods for the St. Susanne Food Pantry, and be sure to pick up your race packet on November 27th at Keen Bean or on race morning. Lace up your running shoes and join us for an unforgettable start to your Thanksgiving celebration!
