    Turkey Trot participants gather for a photo in front of Homer High School, which served as the race’s starting and finish line, on Thursday, Nov. 28, 2024, in Homer, Alaska. More than 120 community members participated in the race, which was co-sponsored by the Kachemak Bay Running Club, and over 300 non-perishable food items were donated to the Homer Food Pantry after the event.
