Hello Trotters:
Here is updated info for this event:
OUR EVENT IS THURSDAY- TURKEY DAY!
1. Bib pick up is 7:30 am to 8:30 am at Flos in Blue Point on Thanksgiving day. We are digital so even if you see a big line, we move fast.
2. Parking- We have two lots we must fill before you park in the neighborhoods. Please come into Corey Avenue to see if parking attendants will direct you to spots. YOU WILL NOT BE STUCK IN THE LOT UNTIL AFTER THE RACE. We will let you out with the help of our wonderful attendants. When those lots are full, please park legally in the neighborhood. Please be super considerate to our Blue Point neighbors.
3. We have the kindest runners and walkers and we have the kindest volunteers. Remember to give THOSE VOLUNTEERS a shout out when you pass by.
