NORWAY — The sixth annual Turkey Trot 4 Hope Scenic 4 Mile Run or 1 Mile Run/Walk will be held Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 23, at 9 a.m. at the Norway Fire Station, 19 Danforth Street in Norway.

Our many sponsors this year have guaranteed that this will be a great event to benefit the Cancer Resource Center of Western Maine (CRCofWM). This is indeed a day of thanks when individuals, teams, businesses, and community can support the work that the CRCofWM does throughout the western Maine region.

You can register individually or as a team at raceroster.com/78857. All Oxford County (Maine) students (K-12) can register for free, thanks to a very generous donor. Awards will be given out starting at 10 a.m. so participants can get to their Thanksgiving celebrations.

If you are away for Thanksgiving or do not live locally, we encourage anyone to join in the fun virtually to support the CRCofWM. Your route can be a favorite trail, a walk with your dog, a daily running route, or even a treadmill. If you run virtually, we would love to have you share where you choose to participate by posting on our Facebook page or #turkeytrot4hope.

“This is the signature fundraising event for Cancer Resource Center of Western Maine, and this year we hope to have many more participants actively fundraising,” commented Caleb Grover, 2023 Turkey Trot 4 Hope Committee Chair. “We challenge each Turkey Trot 4 Hope participant to help us raise much-needed funds to support people in western Maine affected by cancer.”

CRCofWM’s mission is to embrace anyone affected by cancer in a community that offers hope and caring through support, education, and the concepts of healthy living. CRCofWM offers one-to-one support, free wellness programs and classes, support groups, travel and food assistance, and comfort items to anyone impacted by cancer….because no one should face cancer alone.
