 ******************************************************************************
The annual Turkey River Run is being planned for September 29, 2007  to coincide with the traditional Fall Foliage activities.  The Turkey River Run is the brainchild of Lowell Lyngaas whose cross-country runners frequently use the route for the run.  This is not the typical road run – it will involve getting wet, dirty and maybe a little scratched up but will yield spectacular views of the Turkey River valley in the fall and is always lots of fun.

More information is available by calling Maureen Johnson at 563-423-5000 or look for posters in local businesses. 



FIFTH ANNUAL TURKEY RIVER RUN

2007

Date & Time:  Saturday, September 29, 2007   Starting time 9:00 a.m.  (Registration 8:00 – 8:30 a.m.)

Location:  Registration located at Quarry Lodge, Clermont, IA   Transportation will be provided to race starting location.  (Gilbertson Park, Elgin, IA)

Distance:  Not easy to measure it so we can't really be exact.  (Probably about as long as previous years.)  We try to make it about 5 miles. 

Type of Race:  As is our tradition, this is real cross-country running with breath-taking views of the Turkey River Valley.  Be Warned:  You will get wet and dirty; you may get scratches; you will have to climb; slide down on fallen leaves; negotiate fences, culverts, ditches, and we are not sure what all else.  But as with the last two years, we promise it will be crazy enough to put a smile on your face.

Awards:  Given to first place runners in each age category.

T-Shirts:  Given to the first 75 participants to register (includes pre-registrations.)

Entry Fee:  Pre-registration:  $12.00 for adults, $10.00 for children under age 14.  Race Day registration:  $15.00 for adults, $12.00 for children under age 14.  No refund of entry fees paid in advance.

Proceeds to Rivers Hills & Prairies Trail Foundation to be used for recreational trail construction in northeast Iowa.
