Turkey Trot
Nov. 22, 2007


The First Annual Grand Strand Turkey Trot was held in Myrtle Beach, SC, on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 22, 2007. It was presented by Withers Preserve at the new Market Common. Thanks for viewing these pictures!

 

   
The K1 started things off. In photo 1, they were anxiously waiting for the gun so they could start the race. In the 2nd photo, you can see one boy covering his ears in anticipation. Janice Ash Sialiano with Withers Preserve and Dick Richards of Coastal Timing got the races started along with several volunteers.

By unofficial count, Betsy Alexander placed 4th among women racers. She is the daughter of our friends Dave Alexander, South Strand office Chicora Coldwell-Banker, and his wife Barbara.
 

 

     
Several dogs participated in the races. Others just cheered. Medals were awarded and refreshments were available. Everyone we talked to said they are looking forward to Turkey Trot 2008.

Thanks to Wally Snider of Withers Preserve and his wife for these photos.
