Roadtown Turkey Trot 5k

The Roadtown Turkey Trot 5K is a Thanksgiving-season 5K road race held at 23 West Pelham Road in Shutesbury, Massachusetts. The morning includes three starts: the 5K walk begins at 9:00 AM, the 5K run starts at 9:15 AM, and a children's fun run is scheduled for 9:45 AM. This event is designed for runners, walkers, and families, not exclusively for competitive racers. The 5K course follows local roads in Shutesbury, featuring a simple small-town layout with a distinct children's race. Proceeds from the event support a new Shutesbury library. Prizes are themed for Thanksgiving, and local businesses are sponsors. Awards are presented to male and female participants in age groups ranging from 14 and under to 80-89.
