Wauconda Turkey Trot

The BEST way to kick off your Thanksgiving holiday morning - benefit your body by exercising and benefit your community by fundraising! Participate in either the 4-mile race around Bangs Lake or the 2-mile family-friendly fun run/walk around Cook Memorial Park. All participants get an event T-shirt and medal. Top finishers in the race are awarded with turkey trophies. Other trophies are awarded as well, like Best Costume - so show us your Wauconda Turkey Trot Spirit! All proceeds will benefit the Wauconda / Island Lake Food Pantry, Wauconda Township Historical Society, and Wauconda H.S. Future Business Leaders of America.
