Annual Turkey Trot in Flemington aids education center

Thousands of Hunterdon County runners and walkers kicked off their Thanksgiving on Thursday at the starting line of the 17th annual Center for Educational Advancement and Johanna Foods Turkey Trot 5K Run and 2-Mile Fitness Walk.

Proceeds from the event benefit the Center for Educational Advancement, a borough-based nonprofit organization that provides employment, job and social skills preparation, and support to people with disabilities or other social disadvantages.
This year’s race was expected to draw about 5,000 participants — more than 2008’s, which registered about 4,044 walkers and runners.
Among the many local businesses sponsoring the event were Johanna Foods, Snickers Marathon, borough-based Mercedes-Benz, Investors Savings Bank and Basil Bandwagon.
