Lambertville Announces Turkey Trot Road Closures

LAMBERTVILLE, NJ — Many towns have an annual Turkey Trot for Thanksgiving, but in Lambertville and New Hope the race bridges the two communities.

Proceeds will support the Chambers’ programs and Fisherman’s Mark, a local non-profit organization that serves those in need in the Delaware River Towns communities.

The race will start and end in downtown Lambertville, with a course taking runners across the historic and charming Lambertville-New Hope Bridge, through the streets of bustling and festive downtown New Hope, back across the bridge and through Lambertville’s historic downtown business district.
