ProForm Physical Therapy &
Blanchette Financial Group Present...
2021 Turkey Trek
The holidays are quickly approaching which mean it is almost the beginning of the season of giving! 2021 has been a huge year for ProForm Physical Therapy, so what better way to keep the good things coming than by hosting a fundraising event for an incredible cause!
On Saturday November 20th, from 10:00am to 1:00pm, ProForm Physical Therapy will be teaming up with our friends at Blanchette Financial Group and will be hosting our very first Turkey Trek! That's right, you heard correctly; Turkey Trek, not your typical Turkey Trot.
The difference between the two is that a Turkey Trot is traditionally a 5k walk/run but our Turkey Trek will consist of weighted carries! With 4 different ways to complete the carry and 3 weight variations, you are sure to test that grip strength all while making a donation to a great charity - Our Neighbors Table!
So, How Do You Participate in the Turkey Trek?:
- Each individual will first decide if they want to carry a quarter, half, full, or double their body weight. This will determine your donation amount.
- Entry fees, which is also your donation amount, will work as follows:
- $1 for carrying a quarter of your body weight
- $5 for carrying half your body weight
- $10 for carrying your full body weight
- $20 for carrying double your body weight
- From there, you will roll our giant inflatable dice which will determine how you will carry they weight. There are 4 different variations:
- Kettlebell Carries
- Dumbbell Carries
- Trap Bar Carries
- Chaos Carries (Banded Kettlebell)
- Since there are 6 numbers on a dice and only 4 variations, you will have the chance to roll a "wild" which means you get to pick which type of carry you want to do! *The number rolled with the matched carry variation will be determined on the day of the event.
- Once your weight and form of carry is determined, you will have to try and complete one lap around the cones (roughly 80 yards, or a little less than the length of a football field) without dropping your weight. If you complete the challenge, ProForm Physical Therapy and Blanchette Financial Group will match your entry fee! If you drop your weight before making it to the end, there will be no match but feel free to make another donation and try again! If you complete one lap but feel like you can keep going, go for another lap.
- The more laps completed, the more money gets donated to Our Neighbors Table!
And there you have it! We are just as excited as you are! This event will be held at:
ProForm Physical Therapy
175 Elm St. Unit C
Salisbury, MA 01952
10:00am-1:00pm
We are located in the Tom's Discount plaza but we are in our own building which is pushed to the back right of the parking lot. There is a huge sign on the side of the building so you can't miss us! Our parking lot will be blocked off to allow for a safe Turkey Trek so feel free to utilize the entire plaza parking lot.
Some Last Minute Details:
- As an added bonus, there will be food donated by one of our favorite local restaurants - Pomodori of Newburyport! We are huge fans of Pomodori because their extensive menu covers everything from roast beef, to pizza, and even seafood! Complete the Turkey Trek challenge and earn those extra calories!
- Although this event runs from 10:00 to 1:00, feel free to show up whenever your schedule allows. Anyone is welcome and anyone can participate!
- Remember, this event is going to be outside, so if it is going to be a chilly day, dress warm!
