The Chester County Turkey Trot is celebrating its 23rd year and there's still nothing better than spending time with friends and family on Thanksgiving Day! With in-person and virtual options, we are excited to be bringing the community together once again for a fun social event and a great cause!
Did you know that this race has helped to raise funds for childhood cancer research since 2012? Get a festive start to YOUR Thanksgiving morning at the Chester County Turkey Trot 5k Run/1mile Walk and help children facing a cancer diagnosis (through sponsorships and donations) through the Cure4Cam Childhood Cancer Foundation!
The event is a 5k race (2 Waves* - see note below), 2K walk, and a kids’ fun run. There's no better way to start this festive morning!!
