Foam turkey drop to raise money for Wood County Museum

“Oh, the Humanity” – The Wood County Museum has partnered with Toledo Aerial Media for a fundraising event. The (foam) Turkey Drop will take place on Nov. 16 at 8:30 a.m. in the parking lot of the Wood County Museum with radio personality Clint Corpe, The Morning Show, 88.1 WBGU-FM. 

Participants do not have to be present to win. Drop is limited to 150 Foam Turkeys. Foam Turkeys will be sold up until 8 a.m. on Nov. 16 or until sold out.

Participants can purchase a foam turkey for $50 each. Foam Turkeys can be purchased online, at the museum or on location day of the event before the drop (while supplies last).

The three foam turkeys closest to the target will win prizes.

  • 1st Closest to Target: $1,000
  • 2nd Closest to Target: $750
  • 3rd Closest to Target: $500

In the case of inclement weather, the turkey drop will be rescheduled.

Proceeds go to the Wood County Historical Society to help support educational programs, future exhibits, and collections management.

Questions can be directed to the museum at any time by calling 419-352-0967 or email marketing@woodcountyhistory.org

The event was inspired by a 1978 episode of the ditcom “WKRP in Cincinnati.”
