Several communities are preparing Thanksgiving-season Turkey Trot events in 2026, with races in Merrimack, New Hampshire; Charlotte, North Carolina; Tuscarawas County, Ohio; and Redmond, Oregon. Charlotte’s Nov. 26 event expects thousands of participants and will benefit the CMPD Explorers Christmas Project through registration donations and toy contributions, while the Tuscarawas County YMCA’s Thanksgiving 5K will support financial assistance for local children and families. Merrimack Rotary’s Thanksgiving-morning 5K will raise money for Coats for Kids and other community services, and organizers have added chip timing as the event has grown. Redmond is marking its Turkey Trot’s 10th anniversary with an Oct. 10 Turkey Hunt giveaway ahead of its Thanksgiving 5K, 10K and kids’ races, which support Bright Eyes Bright Future.
