FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
Q: IF I DECIDE NOT TO RACE AFTER REGISTERING, CAN I GET A REFUND?
A: There are no refunds. 100% of your registration fee will be used to continue the food work through the United Way's Hunger Coalition, an initiative of United Way.
Q: CAN I BRING MY DOG?
A: Yes! Your furry friends are welcome to trot with us! We just ask that you clean up after them, keep them on a leash, and line up towards the back of the start line so no doggos get spooked at the race start.
Q: ARE STROLLERS ALLOWED?
A: Absolutely! We welcome all age levels of Turkey Trotters! If your child is under 8 years old and not expecting a t-shirt, you do not need to register them. However, if you would like your child to have a race bib and t-shirt, registration is required.
