Fox and promote our "Back To The Future - Where Parkinson's Does Not Exist" theme!  They will be on hand with a few of the iconic cars for the public to view!  We will continue our resource fair as we are committed to community education about Parkinson's Disease, particularly national and local resources that are available to Parkinson's warriors and their care partners. Please plan to stop by and talk to those representing these wonderful services!  Our 6th annual Pocono FoxTrot 5K held in 2021 donated $30,000 to The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research and the Tri-State Parkinson's Project retained $6000 - to use toward community education and programming.  So, in total, 2021 raised $36,000 in approximately 10 weeks!  THANK YOU!  That brought us to a five year total of $243,000! This year, we have set a goal of $50,000!  Funds raised will again support The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research.  Your participation and generosity will also DIRECTLY support the Tri-State Parkinson's Project.  A portion of funds raised will be directed to support special programs that can dramatically improve life for Parkinson's patients.  We hope that you will choose to join us for the run/walk on June 18, 2022 or choose to participate in the Virtual 5K.  You can register for any of these events or donate online.  To donate directly, please make your check payable to Pocono FoxTrot 5K  and mail to The Tri-State Parkinson's Project, 239 Golf Hill Road, Honesdale, PA, 18431   FoxTrot Teams Shake Up The Most!
