East Berlin Turkey Trot

The East Berlin 5K Turkey Trot is a festive running event held on Thanksgiving Day, benefiting local veterans through the organization ROOTS for BOOTS. Participants can choose between a 5K run for adults and a 5K for children aged 5-12. The race starts and finishes at the East Berlin Area Community Center, with a route through the town featuring traffic control for safety.

This event encourages community involvement by collecting canned goods for the MilitaryShare program. Awards are given to top finishers in various age categories, and the event takes place rain or shine. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
