DVCC Turkey Trot

We can't wait to see you on Saturday, November 7th at Del Valle High School! Whether you're a seasoned runner chasing a personal best, a family looking for a fun way to kick off the holiday season, or someone who just wants to support a great cause, here's everything you need to know to make your race day smooth and enjoyable.

🦸 Super Hero Themed, Family-Friendly, and Fun

This year's Super Turkey Trot is all about celebrating your inner hero! We encourage participants of all ages to dress up as their favorite super hero—whether that's a classic caped crusader, a favorite movie character, or your own original creation. Costumes are welcome and encouraged, but not required. The atmosphere will be lively, encouraging, and full of Thanksgiving spirit.

Here is the schedule for the morning. We recommend arriving at least 45 minutes before your race start to allow time for parking, packet pickup, and warm-ups.

Option 1: Pre-Race Packet Pickup (Encouraged)

• Dates & Times: To be posted in mid-October

• Note: Lines can get long on race morning. If you can attend pre-race pickup, we highly recommend it.

The Super Turkey Trot is more than just a race and promoting healthy living—it's a fundraiser for our Turkey Drives hosted in Hornsby Bend and Creedmoor. Your participation helps us provide Thanksgiving meals to families in need in these communities. Thank you for being part of something bigger this holiday season.
