Gobble On the Green
Turkey, cornbread dressing, pumpkin pie, football, and family time … there are so many reasons to love Thanksgiving! Did we mention pie? Each family has its own activities and traditions to look forward to. The Village Green offers a 5K Run/Walk turkey-trot, Gobble On the Green held on Thursday, November 28th, 2024 starting at 9am.
Additional activities include the third annual Junior Warrior Course held at The Village Green Playground for children! This fun and interactive course is FREE and family-friendly.
Pre-race check in will be available on Wednesday, Nov. 27th from 3-6pm at The Village Green’s Lewis Hall (160 Frank Allen Rd in Cashiers) for participants to get their bibs and pick up t-shirts early. We encourage participants to check in early to ensure an on-time race start on Thanksgiving morning!
Race day check in will be available from 7:15-8:30am on Thanksgiving morning!
Please keep in mind that some areas of the race course are gravel, grass, dirt and paved. While we are a dog friendly park, due to the number of participants, there is no dog participation with this event.
Be sure to register by the deadline of November 10th to ensure your Gobble on The Green t-shirt size is submitted before the final order is placed!
Four door prizes from local businesses will be given based on random bib number drawings beginning at 9:30am on the Commons Stage. Awards for the top two overall winners in 7 age categories will begin after door prize announcements. **Participants must be present to win.**
Thank you for supporting The Village Green! We look forward to seeing you on Thanksgiving to Gobble on The Green!
