The GBRC Turkey Trot is a 5K fun run that all net proceeds will benefit the Bellingham Food Bank. It starts at Squalicum Creek Park (1001 Squalicum Way, Bellingham) at 9:00am.
Strollers and children are welcome but must be accompanied by an adult.
Note: this is an open course. There are sections on the road and two road crossings. Runners will be stopped by monitors for cars.
Dogs are not allowed to participate in the event.
Registration for the 2023 GBRC Turkey Trot will open soon!
Awards & Prizes
The top 3 male and female finishers will win prizes. This year, we’re shaking it up. Awards will include: the youngest finisher (on their own 2 feet), the oldest finisher, the fastest stroller, and the best costume. Random prizes will be drawn otherwise.
There will be no official award ceremony, but the winners will be announced and can pick up their awards in the pavilion after they finish.
