15th Annual St Peter Turkey Trot
Advertisement
The holidays are coming once again! We invite you to join St Peter Lutheran School and Dig Deep Race Events for the 15th Annual running of the St Peter Turkey Trot on a flat, country road course in Hemlock to prepare you for the feasting that is to come!
Age group awards are back! And there is a big change this year for the venue as St Peter Lutheran School showcases it’s new outdoor sports facility!
The Turkey Trot consists of USATF Sanctioned 10k and 5k races that originated as a way to encourage student participation. Already successful in its own right, the event blossomed with the addition of a 10k course and local sponsors the likes of Jacques Orchard, Hemlock SemiConductor, ATS Printing, and Swanhaven Manor, coming on to help make this a community event.
Caramel Apples for the kids from Jacques Orchard are part of the post race goodies, as well as string cheese, strawberry goggurt, and chocolate and white milk courtesy of the United Dairy Industry of MI. Awesome T-Shirts, custom finisher medals, FREE online finisher photos, and professional timing are also included! And get this! Overall 5k and 10k male and female winners receive turkeys! Youth overall male and female winners of the 5k and 10k receive apple pies.
And of course… the drawing for the coveted Chandler’s Gift Baskets courtesy of Hemlock SemiConductor!
All proceeds from this event will benefit the students at St Peter Lutheran School, a 501c3 charitable organization.

Course Description
This year both the 5K and 10K events will once again begin and end on St Peter Lutheran’s recently installed track! This is an out and back run on FLAT roads that are mostly paved. Those running the 10k will get some hard-packed gravel road for a stretch. Both the 5k and 10k routes begin the track of St Peter Lutheran School (behind the church) and head north along Raucholz Rd. The 5k turns around between Frost and Dice Roads. The 10k turns right on Pangborn and turns around short of N Fordney Rd before heading back. Both routes will turn right on Lunney Rd in front of St Peter Lutheran School before turning into the parking lot of St Peter Lutheran Church and ending a jaunt around the track to the finish line.
