21st Annual Harrisburg Family Fun Run/Walk for Epilepsy

Join the Epilepsy Association of Western and Central PA (EAWCP) on Saturday, August 5, 2023  in person or virtually as we celebrate the 21st annual Family Fun Run/Walk for Epilepsy at FNB Field. 

For participants joining us at FNB Field, registration and breakfast begins at 8:00 am and the 5k run/2 mi walk will begin for all participants at 9:30 am.

Mascots and local radio and television personalities will be on hand to lead the day’s festivities. It all begins with a run/walk course around City Island. Participants may then move on to a one-of-a-kind tailgate party where they can enjoy food and beverages donated by local sponsors. 

All participants that raise $30.00 will receive a commemorative Epilepsy Awareness T-shirt. Additional prizes are awarded to each participant based on the amount of funds that they raise. Grand prizes are awarded to the top 3 highest fundraising Individuals and Teams.  

All of the proceeds from this event will stay in western and central Pennsylvania to benefit our programs and supportive services. The EAWCP offers a summer camp program, virtual support groups, workshops, and education events. We also provide a free CareShare respite program, emergency medication assistance, high school scholarships, the Oscar Project (providing service dogs), help obtaining sleep/movement monitors and Project School Alert which educates students, teachers and faculty on how to recognize and respond to a person having a seizure. These programs are all aimed at supporting people living with seizures.
