DOGS

All dogs must be on a 6ft leash or shorter with the owner in control of the other end at all times. Absolutely NO RETRACTABLE LEASHES. Owners must be responsible for control of their dog at all times. Owners must clean up after their dog(s) if they relieve themselves in public or private property. 

Owners and participants will take personal responsibility for their dog and assume all responsibility for any legal claims that may arise from the actions of their dog.  Under no circumstance should young children (age 12 year old or younger) be allowed to participate in the event handling a dog.

STROLLERS

If you choose to run with a baby jogger or stroller, you must seed yourself toward the back of the starting corral and behind all other runners.  It is your responsibility to make sure your baby jogger does not impede other runners, and you must take extra precaution to ensure your safety, your child’s safety, and the safety of the runners around you. We reserve the right to pull any participant from the race who is endangering other runners or themselves. 

HEADPHONES

The use of personal music devices is strongly discouraged at this race. To enjoy all that our race has to offer and for the safety of all participants, The Bethany-Fenwick Turkey Trot encourages a headphone-free environment during the running of The Bethany-Fenwick Turkey Trot.

We believe your race experience and those around you will be greatly enhanced by leaving the headphones at home or in the car. Running headphone-free allows opportunities to develop camaraderie with your fellow runners and to enjoy everything the race has to offer. Plus, volunteers and spectators will be on course cheering you on and providing directions to help get you to the finish line.

Runner safety has always been, and will continue to be, a top priority for our event. Please be mindful of the other participants and respect the race personnel to ensure a safe and enjoyable race for everyone.

2024 commemorative Long Sleeve Shirt included. If the event shirt size desired is available when you register, then you will be guaranteed one. Shirts will become very limited as we approach the event date. Register Early to be guaranteed.

As always, the Bethany-Fenwick Turkey Trot is an official "Drop Off" event for the Neighbors in Need Food Pantry. Please bring non-perishable food items to the event on Thursday morning. (Please do not bring to Packet Pick Up on Wednesday evening. Unfortunately, there will not be a vehicle on site to collect).

In addition to this event, you can alway drop off at Bethany Area Realty, 778 Garfield Pkwy, Bethany Beach. Adjacent to the Wawa. Thank you!
