Good morning, McMinnville.

The popular neighborhood run, formerly the Turkey Trot—now renamed the Harvest Fun run—returns on Thanksgiving morning and invites local residents to join a 14th annual event to start the holiday with healthy activity.

A recent court ruling allowed Keurig Dr Pepper to change its soda distribution in California and Nevada+ however, Oregon soda fountains remain unchanged because local bottlers like PepsiCo and other Coca-Cola partners still handle Dr Pepper here.

A company spokesperson said no adjustments for distribution are planned in Oregon.

99W Drive-in Theatre in Newberg hosts Thursday Night Terrors from August through October with classic and modern horror films and activities like trivia and live music—helping local fans come together during these events.

The season will end on Nov. 6 with a double feature of holiday slashers, and the team plans Throwback Thursdays next year—adding another layer to its nostalgic showings.
