Bo Tkach Foundation 5K Turkey Trot
Turkey Trot Registration Update!
After some technical issues with Pretzel City Sports’ website, online registration is officially back up and running at www.pretzelcitysports.com!
Even better — the early registration and guaranteed T-shirt deadline has been extended to November 1st!
A huge thank-you to everyone for your patience while Pretzel City worked through these unexpected challenges. We can’t wait to see you all in Palmerton on Thanksgiving Day for the Bo Tkach Turkey Trot!
Over 878 runners/walkers registered in 2019 for the event, making it the largest race in the foundation’s history.
Proceeds from this race/walk benefit the Bo Tkach Foundation providing mental health counseling funding, scholarships, and educational presentations on Suicide Prevention, OCD, and depression.

A special Thank You to Bob Capasso and BRCTV13 for a great news story on the volunteers at our Turkey Trot.
Without our wonderful volunteers we couldn’t have made this day possible.
