The Rowayton Turkey Trot was founded to give folks a fun run on Thanksgiving morning around the beautiful environs of Rowayton, Ct and raise money for local non profits, whose work goes a long way to making Rowayton such a great place to live.
The first trot in 2011 was a last minute affair, attracting just 20 people, so no cash raised but a great forerunner of things to come. Since then, the event has raised over US$250,000, and beneficiaries have included:
Rowayton Fire Department
Rowayton Arts Center
Rowayton Library
Rowayton Historical Society
Rowayton Gardeners Club
Open Doors Homeless Shelter
Various local kids sports and arts programs
We look forward to many more Trots, and with your participation and generosity raising funds for some great local causes.
