Grateful Gobbler 5K 2025

Join the community for the 26th Annual Grateful Gobbler 5K Walk/Run this Thanksgiving morning at Coolidge Park, Chattanooga, starting at 8:00 a.m.! This cherished Thanksgiving tradition brings together walkers and runners of all ages to support the Maclellan Shelter for Families, an emergency homeless shelter offering 68 beds and a safe space for families seeking permanent housing. Every registration fee, sponsorship, and donation—100%—goes directly to benefit homeless families. Participants can choose to have their t-shirts mailed or pick up packets before the event. (Note: Orders placed after November 20 may not arrive by Thanksgiving.)
