Turbo Trot & Mini Road Race Rally

Turbo Trot & Mini Road Race Rally is a community fundraiser held at Peck Farm North Trail and the Stephen Persinger Recreation Center in Geneva on Saturday, September 12.

Proceeds support the Geneva Park District Scholarship Fund, which helps provide recreation opportunities for community members in need.

The event program includes running options and a battery-powered vehicle rally for children, plus family amenities such as a bounce house and food available from Bad Guy Bagels. Registration includes event shirts for certain races and age-based awards for the main run.

  • 2.5 mile Lightning Run for all ages
  • 1 mile Short Circuit kids race
  • Mini Road Race Rally for ages 3 to 8 with provided ride on vehicles
