NORWAY — The seventh annual Turkey Trot 4 Hope Scenic 4 Mile Run or 1 Mile Run/Walk is set for 9 a.m. Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 28, at the Norway Fire Station, 19 Danforth St.

The event benefits the Cancer Resource Center of Western Maine.

All Oxford county Maine students K-12 can register for free, because of a donor. Awards will be given out starting at 10 a.m. so that participants can get to their Thanksgiving celebrations.

Those who are away for Thanksgiving or do not live locally can join in the fun virtually to support the center. A route can be a favorite trail, a walk with a dog, a daily running route, or even a treadmill. Those who run virtually can post on the event Facebook page or #turkeytrop4hope where they chose to participate.

The center’s mission is to embrace anyone affected by cancer in a community that offers hope and caring through support, education and concepts in healthy living. It offers one-to-one support, free wellness programs and classes, support groups, travel and food assistance, and comfort items to anyone impacted by cancer.

To register, visit raceroster.com.
