## About

Gather on the picturesque shores of Narragansett Bay at Warwick City Park for the annual Warwick Rotary Turkey Trot 5K and Family Fun Walk. This Thanksgiving morning tradition winds through dense coastal pine groves, along sheltered salt marshes, and across paved seaside paths overlooking Greenwich Bay. Runners and casual family walkers mingle together, many dressed in turkey costumes, pilgrim hats, and colorful tutus. The course is entirely enclosed within the municipal park boundaries, eliminating vehicular traffic concerns and creating a stress-free environment for young children and parents pushing jogging strollers. Finishers celebrate with warm cider, fresh fruit, and holiday donuts, while race proceeds provide crucial winter holiday food baskets to struggling families across Kent County.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Entirely closed-loop paved asphalt pathways and broad flat park lanes ensure effortless stroller rolling throughout the event.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Brick community pavilion features heated family restrooms with changing stations, plus covered picnic shelters.
• Age Suitability: Enthusiastically welcomes all ages from infants in carriers to active seniors; non-competitive family walk option is ideal for young kids.
• Sensory Tips: Gentle coastal woodland setting with sound of bay waters; start area has brief loudspeaker music and megaphone announcements.
