Coldwater National Honor Society Turkey Trot

The Coldwater National Honor Society Turkey Trot is a 5K run/walk based at Coldwater High School on North Fremont Street in Coldwater, Michigan. It is organized each year by the high school's National Honor Society, with packet pickup in the west student parking lot before the 9:00 a.m. start. The event is built for runners and walkers, with lower early registration pricing for students 18 and under than for adults. The race raises money for local causes, including the Shelterhouse, veterans, and Coldwater youth in need. Registration includes a race T-shirt, with shirts guaranteed for people who sign up before the stated cutoff, and age-group medals give competitive runners something to chase. The most distinctive prize is the one that fits the Thanksgiving theme: the top female and male finishers each receive a frozen turkey.
