The Turkeys Are Warming Up!



We are all looking forward to the joy that the Thanksgiving Holiday brings… referring, of course, to the annual CEA/Johanna Foods Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning in Flemington.



The Turkey Crew is working hard on this 2010 charitable 5k run/fitness walk, processing the 1,000s of applications coming in of those who just can’t wait to strut their stuff on the streets of downtown Flemington.



Tickets are on sale for the famous raffle with a first prize a 64G iPad, 2nd prize a fabulous Weber grill, 3rd prize a Raleigh Mtn bike and plenty of 4th and 5th prizes.



Registration is live at www.raceforum.com/turkeytrot/. This year there is no price difference for registering online, and no price increase, so why not save a stamp, part of a tree and register now? Online registration is particularly good for registering multiple family members-less chance of writer’s cramp. Apps can also be downloaded from our website, www.ceaemployment.com (Click the link under “Events”)



Applications can be found in locals gyms, YMCAs, and stores nearby. Look for our famous collectors Turkey Trot posters hanging in the windows. If you have a store, restaurant or fitness center where you’d like a poster hung be sure to contact us at 908-782-1480.



This year all the live wires will be found on the streets of Flemington on Thanksgiving morning again. The “Trot” is well known to be the cat’s meow, the gnat’s eyebrows, and the turkey’s wattle-whatever. Come on out and join the throngs of happy Trotters in the 18th Annual CEA/Johanna Foods Turkey Trot!
