Pilgrim's Turkey Trot
Join us for the Pilgrim's Turkey Trot 5K on Thanksgiving Day!
Don't just sit on the couch Thanksgiving morning! Join us for the 12th Annual Thanksgiving Day Turkey Trot and pre-burn those holiday calories while having fun for a good cause! This year, trotters are back in person at Pecan Park for our socially distanced 5K with a self-initiated start time. We also will be bringing back the Kids K option for our littlest turkeys 10 and under. Thanks to the Nacogdoches Jaycees this event is offered to Nacogdoches youth at no charge. This holiday event supports the Nacogdoches Area United Way which engages and works to improve our community by supporting 20 community agencies in the areas of health, education, income and more.
