5th Annual Brookfield Turkey Trot, it's a family tradition!

The Kelly Johnson Foundation is hosting its 5th annual Turkey Trot 5K on Saturday, Nov. 26, 2022. Be a part of the Thanksgiving tradition!

The Kelly Johnson Foundation is hosting its fifth annual Turkey Trot 5K on Saturday, Nov. 26, 2022 at 8:00 a.m. at Fox Brook Park, 2925 N Barker Rd in Brookfield.

The last four years have been quite a success in terms of fundraising, raising over $7,500 and sharing many smiles over miles in the Brookfield community. "We hope to bring the family together during the holiday and offer a fun holiday event this November!" says Race Director Kelly Johnson.

The Kelly Johnson Foundation has continued to host the one of best Turkey Trots in the state! Race proceeds will help the Foundation support local high schools in the Midwest that have insufficient funding for after-school athletic and extracurricular programs and grow its Johnson Family Scholarship program. Since 2014, the Johnson Family Scholarship program has awarded 17 high school scholarships in Wisconsin and Illinois high schools. Participants are welcome to run, walk or stroll their way to the finish line. The 5K race will be timed, awards given out to the top male and female runners/age by division & overall male and female finishers.
