Emergency shelter at HOPE Place is available for those fleeing domestic violence. All services are free and reached through HELPline (256-716-1000), any hour of any day.

Bib pickup and late registration begins at 6:30 a.m. and ends at 7:45 a.m. About Race T-Shirts Race t-shirts are first come, first served. We hand them out during bib pickup while supplies last. When you pick a shirt size during registration, that helps us estimate how many to order. It does not reserve a shirt or a specific size for you. Turkey Trot is a fundraiser, so we order carefully to put as much as possible toward our mission. That means we can't guarantee a shirt for every registrant, even if you sign up early. Get your bib early for a chance to get a tee. Frequently Asked Questions Have questions about parking, strollers, dogs, packet pickup, awards, the Tiny Tot Turkey Trot, or race-day details?
