History
Publicly launched in 2005, the Holiday Inn Express Dr. Kim Armstrong Turkey Trot is held in honour of Kim Armstrong, a Pembroke local and chiropractor, who passed away in 2005, after suffering from a stroke. Since 2005, the Turkey Trot has raised over $175,000 in support of bursaries and hospital programs, including contributing towards equipment purchases for the Out-Patient Rehabilitation Department, helping to bring home our Regional MRI and supporting the Cutting Edge Campaign to upgrade the Surgical Department and support the Orthopaedics Program.
