The Dawson Area Turkey Trot is a community-focused running event held on Thanksgiving Day, featuring a 5K run and a 1-mile trot. This event aims to raise funds to support local families in need during the holiday season, with proceeds directed towards gifts, food, clothing, and other essentials. Last year, the initiative helped 38 families and 124 children, reflecting a significant increase in demand.
