WHY SPONSOR
YOUR BRAND. THEIR FUTURE. FLORIDA'S WORKFORCE.
The GRO Turkey Trot 5K isn't just a race — it's the largest annual fundraiser for skilled trade scholarships in our community. When you sponsor the Turkey Trot, your business gets high-visibility brand exposure in front of hundreds of runners, families, and local leaders — while directly funding the next generation of Florida's electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and welders.
​
Last year's Turkey Trot was our biggest event yet. Your sponsorship dollars go directly to student scholarships — covering tuition, tools, certifications, and mentorship at accredited Florida trade programs.
This is more than marketing. This is an investment in the workforce your business depends on.
