The Fallbrook Thanksgiving Day Turkey Trot is a fun family event. On Thanksgiving morning, participants come together for community fundraising while feeling good and creating memories of a lifetime. Families and their dogs join in the 5K stroll. Our Rotary goal is to raise funds for the Fallbrook Land Conservancy, Fallbrook Animal Sanctuary and the Fallbrook Community(s).
