Tulip Trot - Parkinson's Outreach Association

Held each year in January, the Tulip Trot 5K & 1-Mile Fun Run raises funds for the Parkinson’s Outreach Association (POA), supporting our mission to help people with Parkinson’s disease and their family, friends and caregivers. The race will loop through the beautiful Cascades Park in Tallahassee on Sunday, January 27, 2019. You can choose between a recreational untimed 1-mile fun run, walk or roll (1:30 p.m. start) and a chip-timed 5K course (2 p.m. start) certified by USA Track & Field (USATF).

If a person with a disability requires an accommodation to participate or if special seating arrangements are needed, please contact us at least seventy-two (72) hours prior to the event at (850) 364-0230 or contact@theparkinsonsoutreach.org.

The Tulip Trot 5K & 1-Mile Fun Run would not be possible without the generous support of our sponsors. Sponsorship opportunities and benefits are listed below. Sponsors who wish to be included on promotional materials must turn in their logo and donation check no later than Friday, January 11.
