The Thanksgiving season always brings family-fun events to Freehold, NJ. While most people think that the only holiday event around Thanksgiving is the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York City, the local events around you can be just as entertaining. Freehold Subaru is here to provide the Freehold, Farmingdale and Monroe Township areas with a schedule of fun, local events that you and your family can attend.
Manasquan Turkey Trot - Nov. 22
The annual Turkey Trot in Manasquan will take place on Nov. 22. There will be a 5k run, as well as a 1k run, so all different skill levels are invited to come out and participate in either race. And even if you aren't a runner, come out for some pre-Thanksgiving entertainment and community fun.
Thanksgiving dinner out
We all know that preparing Thanksgiving dinner is a serious hassle. You spend the whole day prepping for your guests and stressing to make sure that everything is perfect. Wouldn't it be nice to go out for a Thanksgiving dinner and let someone else worry about the cooking and seating arrangements?
Residents of Freehold, Farmingdale and Monroe Township have access to restaurants that specialize in cooking Thanksgiving dinner. With multiple course meals, you can have the delicacy of a homemade Thanksgiving dinner surrounded by family without the stress of being the host.
Close to the shore in Rumson, you'll find the best Thanksgiving dinners at the Salt Creek Grille and David Burke Fromagerie. Or, a closer option for Thanksgiving dinner out is Scarborough Fair in Sea Girt. If you're looking for a change this Thanksgiving, dinner out is worth the thought.
Born To Run Race - Nov. 28
If you're looking to run off the huge Thanksgiving meal that you ate the night before, then you should enter the Born To Run Race in Freehold on Nov. 28th. This five mile race loops through the scenic Topanemus Park and proceeds from the event will benefit the Open Door Food Pantry.
Turkey Derby XLI - Nov. 28-29
If running the day after Thanksgiving doesn't sound very appealing to you, you can head down to the Wall Stadium Speedway for the Thanksgiving Derby. The event is two days' worth of racing at the Jersey Shore's number one racetrack.
The Freehold area has a lot of activity happening around the Thanksgiving season. The Freehold community hosts two major races to keep the Turkey Trot tradition alive. The Turkey Derby is a great way to get the entire family out of the house and is a fun alternative to stressful Black Friday shopping. And, if you are growing tired of always cooking on Thanksgiving Day, take the whole family out to Thanksgiving dinner and let one of the restaurants in the area serve you for a change.
