Pound the Pavement for Parkinson's 5K Walk/Run

This year marks a special milestone for the Parkinson’s Group of the Ozarks (PGO)! We’re not only hosting our 22nd annual Pound the Pavement for Parkinson’s 5K Walk/Run but also celebrating our 25-year anniversary! Our mission is to educate, support our community, and improve the quality of life for people affected by Parkinson’s disease. When someone is diagnosed with Parkinson’s and is not aware of available community resources, they can often feel helpless and alone. This event helps bring a sense of unity and support to Parkinson's families who may feel isolated in their Parkinson's journey.

Entry Fee:  $30 Pre-Registration; $35 Race Day Registration

Course:  Start at Graceway Baptist Church head west on Weaver Road to Battlefield First Baptist Church and back

Packet Pickup:  Friday, October 18th from 4PM to 7PM at The Bodysmith or 7:00 AM to 8:00 AM on race day at Graceway Baptist Church
