2023 Turkey Trot and Gobble on the Grand
November 22, 2023 @ 8:45 am - 5:00 pm
This family-friendly mixer welcomes Turkey Trot racers to the packet pick-up pre-party, and hosts many more fun activities! We will have the vendor village, bounce houses, and an inflatable obstacle course for the big kids. Not to mention non-stop tunes featuring music, and lawn games!AND… Turkey Bowling!
A nod to holidays done the Port A way. This bracket-style, single-elimination tournament is always a crowd pleaser – for participants and the many, many onlookers. Sign-up for the official tournament starts at 5:30 but the slippery lanes will stay open for anyone that wants to give it a roll. This event is FREE but CASH IS STRONGLY ENCOURAGED for food and bar!
All proceeds from the 2023 Turkey Trot will go to sustain programs and provide scholarships for Trinity by the Sea Episcopal Day School, a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization and the only day school in Port Aransas.
Looking for a dash of motivation and something we can all be extra thankful for?
Being a charity racer gives you the opportunity to participate in our fun run while raising funds and awareness for Trinity Day School, plus extra training accountability and support from your friends & family.

Extra Bonus: successful Charity Runners (those who raise our target $75/kilometer in support or more) get a FREE registration that includes our signature, premium swag box!
On November 22nd, join us at the Grand Lawn (258 Snapdragon, Port Aransas, TX) for the Turkey & Tot Trot then feel free to hang around for a fun-filled morning of bounce houses, music, lawn games, and more! This is an outdoor venue and we’re a “rain-or-shine” event so please come prepared.
