Pleasanton North Rotary continued its annual fundraiser, the Tri-Valley Turkey Burn Family Fun Run, with coronavirus-conscious changes over Thanksgiving weekend, generating more than $7,000 for youth services and COVID-19 relief.
Despite the obstacles posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Pleasanton North Rotary managed to raise more than $7,000 for youth programs during its sixth annual Tri-Valley Turkey Burn Family Fun Run over the Thanksgiving holiday.
This yearâs Turkey Burn drew 225 registered participants who planned their own runs, walks, or strolls with family members or small groups of friends in the Tri-Valley area, according to Michael Cherman, who chaired the Rotary organizing committee.
The 2019 Tri-Valley Turkey Burn at Ken Mercer Sports Park in Pleasanton drew nearly 2,000 registered participants.
âIt was hard to predict what it would be like to go virtual, but we still had a lot of positive feedback from our runners and walkers,â Cherman said. âThe spirit of the Turkey Burn lived on.â
