The eighth annual Frisco Turkey Day 5K will happen 9:30 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 25, and the town of Frisco wants to remind motorists about the street closures and to be mindful of runners on town roads.

Third Avenue will be closed to vehicles between Granite and Teller streets from 6 a.m. to noon. The 5K will begin and end at the old Community Center, 110 S. Third Ave. The route includes Pitkin Street, Stellar Jay Road, Bobwhite Way, Summit County Road 1000, south Seventh Avenue, Temple Trail and Second Avenue before returning to Pitkin Street.

In-person registration is available from 3-7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 24, and 8-9:15 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 25, at the Community Center. A post-race party will be held there, with participants encouraged to donate nonperishable food. People can receive an additional door prize ticket for every five items donated for the chance auction, which starts at 10:45 a.m.
