Gather your family, friends and coworkers on Thanksgiving morning for the Holy Cross Hospital Fort Lauderdale Turkey Trot! In its eighth year, this 5K run-walk has become a Broward County tradition and attracts thousands of participants. The course runs along scenic A1A, and participants may run, walk or jog. For children who want to race, there will also be a Kids’ Dash!

Aside from supporting the community by inspiring individuals to make healthy lifestyle choices, the event will also raise money for Leadership Broward Foundation, Inc. and the Helena Ramsay Soaring Leader Scholarship. The Helena Ramsay Soaring Leader Scholarship was created by MedPro Healthcare Staffing in memory of Marjory Stoneman Douglas student Helena Ramsay to celebrate her vision for a better global society.

Registration ranges from $20-$40, and the Kids’ Dash is $5. Early registration runs through October 31 at $35 per person with discounted rates for students, military personnel and children under 12. Registration costs $40 pp after November 1.
