About the Campaign:

🦃💛 Give Back with the Gobble Hobble! 🍂🏃

You don’t have to run or walk to be part of the Gobble Hobble! Community members can make a donation to support this annual Thanksgiving morning tradition and help the event continue making a difference in Highland.

Event Details

Date: Thursday, November 26, 2026

Location: Korte Recreation Center, 1 Nagel Dr., Highland, IL 62249

For the past three years, the Gobble Hobble has participated in a Grant Sponsorship program, with portions of event proceeds and sponsorship funding helping support an addition to a Highland park. Every contribution is another way to get involved, give back, and support an event that brings the Highland community together. For 2026 our goal is to add bike racks (that fit E-Bikes) in Plaza Park, Spindler Park and Glik Park.
