About this run
WE ARE EXCITED to announce our annual 2026 Bath Area Food Bank Turkey Trot! We have medals for the first 5 males, and the first 5 females! BRING SPECTATORS as well...to help us cheer on the finishers! This has turned into a very well attended event. We allow dogs on leashes, strollers, wagons..YOU NAME IT...and if you come in costume OR matching T shirts...ALL THE BETTER! We will begin Running, Trotting, Walking or Crawling at 8am. Registration is $50.00 (plus a 2.50 processing fee). If you prefer to register in person it will be 60.00 (and no processing fee) at the check in. ALL the funds donated will go directly to food insecure families in Bath, W. Bath, Woolwich, Phippsburg, Arrowsic, and Georgetown. Please send questions to our director, Kimberly Gates at kimfgates@gmail.com We start trotting at 8am and open registration at 7am. We do have ONE bathroom...but there tends to be quite a line. This year we are trying to rent bathrooms, to help with the line..WE WILL NO BE STARTING ANY LATER THAN 8AM. THIS IS A RAIN SNOW OR SHINE event. We will have bottled water on hand...and we will be making A LOT of noise when you finish!!
