What a fantastic finish for Ruffles in 2022. A week or so out from his deadline to cross the finish line, everyone was a bit worried. But.... the wonderful citizens and businesses of the Cold Lake area gave Ruffles a mighty shove and helped him to not only reached his goal of 400 turkeys, but surpass it with flying colours. In total, thanks to Ruffles' excellent finish, the Cold Lake Food Bank was able to provide 481 Christmas hampers to needy families in our community. Cold Lakers - your generosity and support is truly amazing - Thank You.
Each and every fall, Cold Lake's favourite homegrown turkey "Ruffles," awakens from his deep summer slumber to prepare for the race of a lifetime. The Great Cold Lake Turkey Race takes place in the weeks leading up to Christmas and after doing a few jumping jacks and hammy stretches, Ruffles takes off on a grueling race to collect enough donations to purchase 400 turkeys for local families in need during the holiday season.
