Event overview
The Forest Lake Rotary Turkey Trot takes place on November 27, 2025 in Forest Lake, MN. The community event offers two distances:
- 5K
- 1 Mile Fun Run
The run is held on the Hardwood Creek Trail behind the Forest Lake City Center (1408 Lake St S). The Rotary Club of Forest Lake is organizing the 8th annual edition. A portion of the proceeds will support food assistance for families in the Forest Lake community. Runners, walkers, parents with children in strollers, and leashed dogs are welcome. The organizer notes that dogs that do not do well with other dogs, large groups, children, or loud noise should be left at home.
