St. Joseph Turkey Trot

St. Joseph Turkey Trot

The SECOND ANNUAL St. Joseph 5k “Turkey Trot” Run/Walk will be held on November 27, 2025! Starting and finishing at the Margaret B. Upton Arboretum, this will be a wonderful way for families to gather, friends to reunite, and the community to strengthen – not to mention a guilt-free way to begin a day famous for indulging! Participants will run or walk past Silver Beach Pizza, Shadowland, the Carousel, and our Iconic beaches on the way to an energetic finish with music, refreshments, and awards. Our goal is simply to create an event that will become a tradition as so many other Thanksgiving Day races have become throughout Michigan.
