They Ran & Walked to Honor Living Courageously
On Saturday, August 29th, 234 individuals ran or walked in the 3rd Annual Colorado Courage 5K Run to support those living courageously with Parkinson's. The event raised $17,672.00 for the Parkinson Association's programs and services, with Jeannette Stack as the top fundraiser bringing in $1,437.00! We are deeply grateful to all those who participated in the event, as well as those who generously donated! The success of this event is due to the dedicated work of the, small but mighty, race coordinator team; Jenna & Brad Rice, Tim Wilson and Jacob Asher and their crew of volunteers. Thank you all for your support!
