We are bringing back the Turkey Drive Pub Run in 2022! Join us on Tuesday, November 22nd at 6 pm for a fun run around South Sayville ending at a local bar. First drink is on the house, we just ask that you bring a turkey (10lb. max) to donate.
If you'd like to make an additional contribution there is an option to donate money as well when you register. That money will be used to cover any shortfall in turkeys or to add other Thanksgiving food items. We'll buy this food from local grocery stores, and deliver them to the shelter ahead of Thanksgiving day. Any money or food collected above what the shelter needs will be distributed to local food pantries.
The run will be anywhere from 3-7 miles. It will not be timed as it is a fun run, meant to get runners together to log some miles, donates some turkeys and have some fun. All runners and walkers are welcomed.
These turkeys are guaranteed to fit in the ovens at the shelter and are particularly helpful for this particular donation.
Optional:
Have a socially distant friend take a picture of you running your race, or take a selfie when you finish!
You have to upload a result in order to post pictures.
Make sure to join us on Thursday, December 15th at 6 pm for our next pub run.
When we were younger, not much younger than today
We had a turkey drive pub run before Thanksgiving Day
But now those days are gone, COVID ruined our event
Yet that shelter still needs 76 turkeys sent
Help us if you can, we're feeling down
And because of COVID you can't bring turkeys 'round
Help us use our feet to cover ground
Won't you please, please help us?
And now our drive has changed in oh so many ways
Your run can happen anywhere on any day
But even though you can't bring turkeys to the store
You can still pitch in like you always have before
Help us if you can, send a few bucks
A pandemic shouldn't mean those families are out of luck
With your money we'll fill up our delivery truck
Won't you please, please help us
Help Us, Help Suffolk!
