Thanksgiving run

| December 1, 2014

DSC_0011COSHOCTON – Sixty-eight participants came out early on Thanksgiving morning to show their support for the first annual Coshocton Turkey Trot 5K hosted by the New Life Ministries young adults group. Half of the proceeds from the event went to the New Life Ministries young adults group and half went to Joy International, a world-wide organization devoted to the rescue of child sex slaves. You can find out more about the group at www.joy.org. Kelly Treat, who helped organize the event along with Dustin Haywood said, “I’m so happy you guys are here. This is awesome. Welcome to the first annual Coshocton Turkey Trot. We are grateful to Jeff Drennen Dealerships for sponsoring this event. We are excited to do this for you today.” Kelly’s husband, Ben Treat, was in costume as “Drumstick Charlie.” That would be a turkey drumstick of course.  Beacon photo by Mark Fortune
