They Ran & Walked to Honor Living Courageously
On Saturday, August 27th, over 200 individuals ran or walked in the 4th Annual Colorado Courage 5K Run to support those living courageously with Parkinson's. The event raised $15,461 for the Parkinson Association's programs and services, with Jeannette Stack as the top fundraiser bringing in $1,319.00! 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 & Lela Wilson and Jacob & Andrea Asher and their crew of volunteers. Thank you all for your support!

They Rode to Raise Awareness
On Sunday, August 28, we celebrated the 4th annual Redneck Ride for Parkinson's. Because of you, we had another fantastic event through the foothills of Larimer County and this year we exceeded our goal! Thank you for all your support of John, the Parkinson Association of the Rockies and for joining to raise awareness of Parkinson's disease. Your support helped us to raise over $10,000 to provide scholarships to individuals who participate in the Parkinson Association's exercise & activity classes.
We love when our community comes together to make a difference, and your support of the 4th Annual Redneck Ride for Parkinson's is a great representation of how much we can do when we work together to enhance lives.
