The Challenge is a 1.2 mile walking course, filled with mental and physical obstacles for people with Parkinson's to overcome. It’s a wonderful event that allows our Parkinson’s community to test their abilities, and celebrate their accomplishments together.

We are seeking up to 30 volunteers to support various aspects of the event, such as event set up, and to assist with managing each of the challenge obstacles. The time commitment required from volunteers is approximately 3-4 hours. We will provide all necessary training and guidance to ensure a smooth and rewarding volunteering experience.
