Rye Recreation’s 48th Annual Turkey Run & Paws Walk Soars to New Heights!

Rye kicked off the holiday season with record-breaking spirit at the 48th Annual Turkey Run and Paws Walk, hosted by Rye Recreation! This beloved community tradition drew its highest number of participants ever, filling the streets of Rye with families, friends, and four-legged companions ready to move, mingle, and make memories.

It was incredible to see our community come together, catching up with neighbors, cheering one another on, and burning off a little post-Thanksgiving turkey (and shopping!) along the way. From seasoned runners to enthusiastic first-timers, from wagging tails to bundled-up spectators, the joy and energy were unmistakable.

Rye Recreation is honored to be part of such a meaningful and long-standing tradition. Thank you to everyone who came out, celebrated, and helped us start the holiday season on such a high note. We can’t wait to see you again next year!
