It is time to get ready for the 55th Annual Urbana Park District Turkey Trot. The FREE one-mile fun run/walk is Thanksgiving Morning at Crystal Lake Park. 

On Thanksgiving morning, come to Crystal Lake Park beginning at 8 a.m. Sign in begins then, and the fun run/walk begins at 9 a.m.

Free hot chocolate is provided. The first 800 participants across the finish line receive a ribbon. Stay after the run for a prize raffle.

This year we’ll again put the “give” in Thanksgiving by taking donations for the Urbana Park District Scholarship Fund. Your donation will help the park district offer reduced-price summer camp opportunities for children in need next year. Parking is available at the special event lot on Broadway Ave.

People can buy the Turkey Trot t-shirts now, in person at Phillips Recreation Center, 505 W. Stoughton, Urbana.

Call the park district at (217) 384-4062 if you have any questions. Get your t-shirt today and we will see you Thanksgiving morning at Crystal Lake Park!
