From the Organizer
Parkinson’s Steady Strides 5K
Dedicated to the physical, mental, emotional and social needs of those living with Parkinson’s disease in the Greater Dayton/Cincinnati metroplex, Parkinson Support & Wellness exists to help those with PD learn about the disease, which empowers individuals to take control and make connections with local resources like support and exercise groups.
Steady Strides, a timed 5K race and walk brings people together to raise funds for our mission to serve the local Parkinson community. These funds go directly toward financial grants made to local exercise and therapy organizations and to essential educational programs like PD-EDU.
Our big day isn't just a 5k; it's a joyful gathering of our community and a demonstration of the impact we can make when we work together. Free food from some of our area’s iconic brands, musical entertainment and a Basket Raffle extravaganza will be found in the Wetterer’s Way concourse adjacent to the Start/Finish line.
Fundraising Teams
Friends and family teams are the core that makes Steady Strides a financial success and a truly communal gathering. Joined by a common connection to Parkinson Disease, these groups come together to assure that the support services so vital to a full and active life are available to their loved ones. Teams take on their own personalities and make sure to include fun as a focus of the day. And they can get pretty competitive when it comes to number of participants and funds raised.
Support for the teams frequently ranges beyond immediate, even extended, families and circle of friends. Teams solicit sponsors from their communities and across their social media groups as well. This raises awareness and grows financial contributions.
Team captains are supported by the Steady Strides Race Committee and will be contacted by the committee to assist in recruiting.
