Turkey Trot

On Sunday, Nov 20th, Hopelink will hold its annual Turkey Trot in Kirkland to raise money to help low-income families in east and north King County get through the challenging winter months.

Turkey Trot proceeds help Hopelink provide emergency services for low-income families in our community during a time when they face added seasonal pressures - such as higher home heating costs and additional food needs.

New this year is a separate fun run on the 5K (three-mile) course for those interested in a faster pace. Walkers can choose a more leisurely stroll along the same course, which runs from Marina Park to Carillon Point and back.
