About the 2026 Turkey Trot 5K
This is an untimed, casual route through downtown Saugatuck, raising money for a local food assistance organization during the holidays. The course loops through the downtown streets, and costumes are part of the deal, with a prize going to the most spirited outfit of the morning.
Everything starts and finishes at Wicks Park Bar & Grill, which also serves as the registration point. The charity focus is front and center: all proceeds go directly to a local neighbor-support organization helping families through the holiday season.
