CHE - 2018 Nov - Thanksgiving Turkey Trot.jpgFor the second year in a row, SCI Chester's Inmate Improvement Organization hosted a Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning.

More than 50 inmates braved the freezing Thanksgiving morning air and ran 3.1 miles, which is 25 laps around Chester's track. The fastest time was 24:11. Runners were joined by some of the WAGs at Chester dogs.

In order to participate, all runners had to pay an entry fee of $3 with all money being donated to Toys for Tots. The IIO met the donations, so the overall contribution was $350.
