Thompson Turkey Trot

The Centerville Bank Thompson Turkey Trot is an annual event held at the West Thompson Dam Overlook Shelter in Thompson, Connecticut. It features a 5K timed trail run, a 3K untimed walk called the "Wobble" where dogs on leashes are welcome, and a free kids' fun run for children 12 and under. The event encourages participants to wear festive Thanksgiving and turkey-themed costumes, creating a fun and family-friendly atmosphere.

Awards are given to top finishers overall and in various age groups. Proceeds support local trails, Parks & Recreation, and the TEEG food pantry. The race welcomes runners, walkers, virtual participants, and teams of all ages. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
