South OC Gears Up for Turkey Trot
The annual set of Thanksgiving Day races in Dana Point will raise money to help support local Marines.
The Dana Point Chamber of Commerce is swamped with prepartations for this week's Thanksgiving Day Turkey Trot race, officials say.
"It's Turkey Trot all the time right now," said chamber Executive Director Heather Johnston.
The 10- and 5-kilometer races at the Dana Point Harbor Thursday are expected to host more than 11,000 people and gross $350,000, the profits of which will go to support the Dana Point 5th Marine Regiment Support Group.
