Thanksgiving morning turkey trot to help needy

Posted

Rotary Club of Warwick in cooperation with Warwick Public High Schools will hold the second Thanksgiving Day Turkey Trot Thursday, Nov. 26 at 8 a.m. This year’s Trot will focus on helping members of our community who may be struggling to provide healthy meals for their families. The Trot will take place at the Warwick City Park walking trail. The Trot will start promptly at 8.

Proceeds from the Trot will go to the Westbay Marketplace Food Pantry and Warwick Rotary Charity Fund. Food donations will go to Westbay Marketplace Food Pantry. This is a community-wide event open to all families, clubs and organizations. This is a great way to start your Thanksgiving Day with family and friends. Pre-registration forms are available at: www.clubrunner.ca/warwick. For additional information, email: warwickrotaryturkeytrot@gmail.com.

For online registration and forms, visit www.cricc.net/rotary.

Registration with one non-perishable food item is $5 for students age 6-18; free for children under the age of 6; and $10 for adults.

Rotary is a global network of community volunteers. Rotary members are business, professional, and community leaders who provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards, and help build goodwill and peace in the world. The Warwick Club has had a longstanding relationship with Warwick Public Schools. Rotarians sponsor an annual Christmas party and visit from Santa for elementary children. There is a dictionary distribution each year where every third grader gets his/her own dictionary to keep. Rotary sponsors a college scholarship each year to a deserving senior from each of the high schools. Rotarians volunteer as judges for senior projects and the statewide Academic Decathalon.
