Before the dressing and the feast, there is a time to pause and reflect, look at the year’s blessings and even give a little bit back.
That is the setting for Thanksgiving in Oakwood this year.
The Oakwood Area Food Pantry is hosting its first Turkey Trot on Nov. 28 at 9 a.m.
Registrants for the 5K will enjoy an early morning stroll or through the Ironwood Pavilion at Kickapoo State Park. Festive gear is welcomed and a giant inflatable turkey will be available for pictures.
Race packets can be pickup or guests can register beginning at 8 a.m. Awards will be handed out to the top three runners in the Adult, Senior and Child Divisions at 10 a.m. Special medals will also be issued.
Adult registration is $25 and for children 15 and under it is $15.
