Gobble Wobble is on for Thanksgiving
Join your neighbors on Thanksgiving morning for the annual Thanksgiving Gobble Wobble, a family fun run/walk for all ages. No timing and no bibs—just a very casual way to burn some calories, hang with friends and neighbors, and do some good for people. There are two routes of approximately 2.5 miles and 3.5 miles. The entry fee is a bag of nonperishable groceries per runner/walker, which will be donated to Open Table in Concord. Please, no turkeys—they cannot be donated.
Organizer Jen Flanagan will be at the Donelan’s/Whistle Stop parking lot at 8 a.m. to start collecting groceries, and the Gobble Wobble will start at 8:30. We’ll start the Wobble at 8:30. Please note that roads will not be closed for this event, so younger kids must be accompanied by a parent or older sibling. Email jen@flanagans.us if you have questions.
