Hull of a Race

                                      2024 Hull of a Race for Parkinson’s
                                             Saturday, August 17th

                                                         Celebrating 2023 and Looking Forward to 2024 Hull of a Race

In 2023 Hull of a Race raised and donated a record $18,000 to the St. Louis chapter of the American Parkinson’s Disease Association. 100% of this money goes to much needed Parkinson’s Research. A record 250 runners participated in our professionally timed race with many drawn by the fast times that they can achieve on our flat certified course. We were pleased to have an increased number of people with Parkinson’s along with their families and friends attend and participate in Hull of a Race 2023.

In 2024 we look forward to another great opportunity to raise money for Parkinson’s Research. We will continue to provide stickers for runners to wear with names of people affected by Parkinson’s. Please let us know of names and addresses of those you know with Parkinson’s, so we can contact them or you about our race, stickers, and recognition. Also contact us if you would like to join our Pit Crew and help with the race. New members are always welcome. We hope you will participate in or donate to Hull of a Race in 2024.
2023 was our first Hull of a Race since our founder, Marilyn White
