If you want the shirt, Oct. 11 is the date to remember.
The virtual option is useful for people traveling over Thanksgiving.
Supporting classroom grants and the cross country team makes the registration fee feel worthwhile.
I like that there’s a one-mile option too. That makes it easier for families to participate together.
The Turkey Trot has become such a nice Kearney tradition. Good reminder about the Oct. 11 early-bird deadline.
