About the Event

Can you Finish before the Turkey?!

A YMCA Staff member, dressed as a Turkey, will also be entered in our race and given a slight head start. Catch the Turkey and be entered into the grand prize raffle. Who will be the Turkey this year?

Anyone who beats the Turkey will have their name entered into our raffle for one of Bartlett Bakery's delicious creations!

Walkers are encouraged to participate!

Number pickup and Day of Registration will be on Sunday, November 29 from 8:00-8:45am at the Mount Desert Island YMCA.

This race is capped at 150 participants.

If we have spots remaining, we will have Race Day Registration on Nov 29, from 8:00-8:45am. Cost on Race Day is $30.

This race sold out before race day last year.

All participants 17yrs and older need a park pass.

All proceeds benefit the Mount Desert Island YMCA.
