2021 Tater Trot Nets $3,200 for Christmas Box Project

We would like to thank our running community, our volunteers (including our race directors – Christian Utley & Randy Shiosaki), and our corporate sponsors for the success of this year’s Tater Trot.

Even though the day started out a bit rainy, it was wonderful to again have a live event and a chance to gather for such a great cause. We had 69 runners register for this year’s event, help raise money for the CDT Christmas box project, and have some fun in the process. There’s nothing like a hot baked potato and a chance to win one of several dozen nice raffle prizes!

The event netted a $3,200 donation to the CDT for the Christmas box project which provides a full Christmas dinner to families in Bingham County. For more information on this project, please contact the Blackfoot Community Food Pantry.
