On your marks, get set, trot! The Throggs Neck Benevolent Association hosted its 21st annual 5K Turkey Trot in memory of Geraldine Crowley-Crorkin on Saturday, November 19 at Orchard Beach. The fundraiser promoting healthy living scheduled before Thanksgiving is named in honor of Crowley-Crorkin who passed away from cancer in April 1995 shortly after given birth.
