🦃 Turkey Trot 2026: BACK FOR SECONDS!
The countdown is on, Aviators! Earhart's Turkey Trot returns on Thursday, November 19, and we're getting ready for another exciting day of walking, school spirit, and supporting science education!
This year, we're aiming to raise $85,000 for Earhart's Science Program, helping fund our dedicated science teacher, hands-on experiments, and the materials that make science come alive for our students.
👕 Want This Year's Turkey Trot T-Shirt?
Our exclusive 2026 Back for Seconds! T-shirt is ready, and there are TWO ways to earn one!
🏃 Individual Challenge — Raise $100!
Register your student on PledgeStar and raise $100 in pledges (flat fee or two $2 pledges) by 11:59 p.m. Friday, November 6, and they'll earn their very own 2026 Turkey Trot T-shirt!
🎉 Schoolwide Challenge — Raise $60,000 Together!
