On Sunday, November 15, the Centennial Boosters will be holding the fifth annual 5K Turkey Trot. The check-in time is at 7:00am and the race will begin at 9:00am.

“The annual Turkey Trot is a fundraiser and promotion that will go to benefit all CHS extracurricular sport teams, clubs, and student organizations,” said Craig Newell, president of the CHS Boosters team.

According to Newell, the event has raised an average of more than $40,000 over the last five years. This year, their goal is to raise the same amount as previous years.

Pre- registration is open with $25 per runner, but the price will move up to $30 after Friday, November 13.

Newell stated that there were about 80 runners last year, and “[they] hope to have at least that many this year.”

“It is a fun activity that strives to bring the Centennial community together to promote exercise and an active, healthy, lifestyle,” Newell concluded.
