Hope Coalition is giving thanks this year! We are excited to announce The City of Hendersonville is passing the Turkey Trot Torch to help support the work of Hope Coalition! Join us for a great cause supporting families in Henderson County. Run, walk, or trot and make a difference! Presented by Hunter Subaru.
Start your Thanksgiving morning with a fun-filled dash through downtown Hendersonville for the 13th annual Turkey Trot 5k. Whether you’re a seasoned runner, a casual walker, or just in it for the costumes, this race is for all, including your well-behaved furry pet!
The race kicks off at 8:30 AM on November 27th. Beginning at the First Citizens Plaza on Main Street, you will trot through charming downtown Hendersonville and loop back around to the Plaza. Runners and walkers should plan to be off the course by 10:30 AM, leaving plenty of time for the feasting! The race goes on rain, shine, or snow, so dress for the weather, and let’s make it memorable! This is not your typical race. It’s all about the fun!
Show us your best turkey, pumpkin, or Thanksgiving getup. Fun prizes will be awarded for Fastest Male, Fastest Female, Best Costume, Best Pet Costume, and Farthest Traveled.
