Give NCW Turkey Trot, presented by Wenatchee Valley Medical Group, is a great way to start your holiday season. The event features timed 5K and 10K races and an untimed, free run for kids. The 5K and 10K races are held on the Apple Capital Loop Trail along the Wenatchee riverfront. The Kids Race is held on a short course on the grounds of Pybus Public Market. Strollers and leashed dogs are permitted. Please be mindful of those around you.

This family friendly event kicks off the annual Give NCW online giving campaign hosted by the Community Foundation NCW. Give NCW starts Thanksgiving Day through Dec. 31 and supports nonprofit organizations in NCW. Race proceeds will be shared among the nonprofit organizations that participate in the campaign.

The “Best Dressed Individual” will receive a $500 Giving Card that can be redeemed to support nonprofits on Give NCW, and the “Best Dressed Group” will receive a $1,000 Giving Card.
