In year's past, the Turkey Trot has used to proceeds to fund various projects for the Platte Canyon High School Cross Country Program. This year, the 285 Turkey Trot will be donating 10% of all race profits on behalf of Platte Canyon High School, along with 100% of donations raised from this tab being donated by CRATES Colorado, to Evergreen High School Athletics, in wake of their recent school shooting that took place on September 11th, 2025. We hope that they will be able to use these funds for anything their student athletes may need in these challenging times. CRATES Colorado and Platte Canyon School District stand strong with EHS! Go Cougars!
