Kindergroup’s event will take place Sunday, November 16th at Trottier Middle School’s track (49 Parkerville Rd). Check-in begins at 9:00 am and races start at 10:00 am.
Although participation is free, registration is required. And there is an incentive to sign up early.
If yo
u sign up by this Friday, October 31st, you can also pre-purchase a commemorative knit hat. (Hats won’t be available on the day of the event.)

As usual, organizers will offer free coffee, donuts and other snacks at the event. Plus, Kindergroup promotes:
Come early for crafts, games, and pre-race activities!
Of course, the real attraction is getting to watch adorable tots and proud kids run their “trot” on the outdoor track.
“In the spirit of Thanksgiving” organizers will again collect donations for the Southborough Food Pantry at the event. A list of their current needs can be found on their website, www.southboroughfoodpantry.org.
Thanks to Kindergroup and presenting sponsor, Annie Pfaff of Gibson Sotheby’s International Realty, and supporting partners Root to Rise Pilates and The Hillside School for making the event possible.
