Main Street
Join us before your Thanksgiving festivities for the First Annual Castleton Turkey Trot 5k Run/Walk! This collaborative event between the Town of Castleton and the Friends of Castleton Parks and Recreation aims to bring our community together, highlight our beautiful town, and fundraise for recreation for all ages in Castleton. Awards will be presented to top finishers in each category, but we also encourage families and walkers to register.
This event is a fundraiser to support the Town of Castleton Parks and Recreation. Help us support recreation for folks of all ages in our community!
Course
The 5k course will have a mass start heading south on South St. from the intersection with Main St. in the village of Castleton. The course will head onto the Rail Trail for just over a mile before heading back to the village on South St and finish on Main St. The course is extremely flat. The Rail Trail in Castleton is gravel and most larger wheeled running strollers could easily manage the surface.
Racers can check in and pick up bibs at the former Castleton Village School (47 Mechanic St.) starting at 6:45am.
The race will start at 8am on Thanksgiving morning.
