The third annual Oak Hills Turkey Trot is set for Thanksgiving day. This 5K fun run/walk is a great opportunity to connect with neighbors and friends and to make some room for that second piece of pie. The event will start at 8 a.m. sharp.
While it won’t be a timed event, our friends at Foot Traffic will provide a clock to track elapsed time. Thank you to Portland Running Co. for their support! Thank you to the cross country teams from Sunset and Westview High Schools for providing volunteers for the race. We are grateful for their participation because, without volunteers, events like this could not happen. Questions? Contact Maura Wick (maurawick@frontier.com). |
