Money raised from the YMCA’s 54th annual turkey trot will help local families.
Jenny Dallas says despite the cold weather back on Thanksgiving Day, 1172 participants came out, which is a record number.
“Really happy about that. A lot of people braved the cold and were at the Y for that, and we also had a record amount raised, $33,961, for the annual campaign.”
Those dollars will provide financial assistance for memberships and programs.
“Anyone who needs a little help paying for preschool, swim lessons, youth sports, summer day camps, things like that so we can make sure we have a space for everyone in our community.”
The 5K’s overall male winner was Xander Heil of Uhrichsville, with a time of 15:57. The overall female winner was Hannah Wyler of Mineral City, with a time of 19:03.
