Sdia Turkey Trot for Heroes

Held every Thanksgiving morning at the Center for Non Profits in Roger, AR our Turkey Trot for Heroes 5K is an exciting event that garners the full support of local runners, running organizations, and our communities.

In addition to the traditional 5K run, we have a Wild Gobbler 5K (a 5K with 5 stations of exercises throughout the route dedicated to Fallen Heroes), and a 1-Mile Fun Run/Walk! 

We are proud to partner again this year with Rogers Fraternal Order of Police! Proceeds from the race fund the programs of Sheep Dog Impact Assistance.

NEW AWARDS! The Wild Gobbler has 1st, 2nd and 3rd Place for men and women!! 

• Best Dressed award for the best dressed individual OR group -- Please dress in THANKSGIVING COSTUMES (Turkey, pilgrim, fall fun, etc.)
• Founders Favorite chosen by our very own SgtMaj Lance Nutt 

So many new and exciting things, and YOU can make a difference! Your participation will allow SDIA to help fellow Sheep Dogs Get Off The Couch and reengage in living active, meaningful and productive lives learning post traumatic growth through our Outdoor Adventure, Warrior PATHH and Continued Service/Disaster Response programs. 

Run with us in the morning before heading home for pie and turkey! Don’t miss this opportunity to #GetOffTheCouch and help our nation’s heroes!
