This year’s Turkey Toss will be the closing event of Vanderbilt’s Sesquicentennial celebration and will be held on Tuesday, Dec. 16, from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., in the Multipurpose Room, Great Room and Carmichael Cafe within Carmichael College.  

This event is open to Vanderbilt staff, faculty and postdocs and will offer regular turkeys as well as halal and tofurkey options. There will also be light refreshments, giveaways of Vanderbilt swag, and games and crafts for attendees to enjoy. 

A Vanderbilt ID or proof of employment is required to pick up a turkey. A separate ID is needed for each turkey or tofurkey picked up for colleagues. 

Unclaimed turkeys will be donated to Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee.
