This is an email message we sent to all our Turkey Day Race Supporters:

Dear Turkey Day Race Supporters:

Whether you are a race day participant or a supporting spectator of the Baldwinsville Kiwanis Turkey Day Race, the Baldwinsville Kiwanis Club sincerely thanks you for your continued support. We are contacting you today to ask for your early commitment and registration for this year’s Baldwinsville Kiwanis Turkey Day Race. The proceeds of this annual event, approximately $35,000, goes toward supporting various children’s organizations in the Baldwinsville and Greater Syracuse Area. Due to the COVID-19 virus and the impact it has had on the children in our community, we are seeing an increased need to support the organizations that depend on our donations today! In fact, that’s why we are asking for your support and commitment early.

It is our full intention to hold the 52^nd Annual Baldwinsville Kiwanis Turkey Day race live this year on Thanksgiving morning at C.W. Baker High School. In the event that circumstances prohibit the race from going off as planned, we will transition to a virtual platform. Again, we thank you for your support and loyalty. I assure you, it is appreciated and realized by the children of our great community.

Early Registration Period: August 1 – August 15

Early Registration Special Entry Fees: 5k – $20 / 10K – $25

If you are unable to support or participate in our 2020 race, please consider donating to our Club. Your donations will allow us to continue our mission of Serving Children in CNY during this difficult period.

Sincerely,

The Baldwinsville Kiwanis Club
