Riley Klassen is proud to be in charge her family’s event this year for her Senior project at Bret Harte High School. She anticipates that this year will be even more successful than years past.
The Turkey Trot has become a great Thanksgiving morning tradition for both local and out of town families. Say something here about how it started I like the bit about What began as a group of friends who wanted to get a bit of exercise before a Thanksgiving meal…
Past participants can surely attest to the idea that the Klassen Klassic Turkey Trot demonstrates the strong community spirit that Murphys and its inhabitants possess, as well as their generosity and willingness to give back.
