The Great Pumpkin Run 5K
The event on October 24, 2026 takes place at Levy Park, 403 East 3rd Street, Crowley, LA 70526. It is organized as a community 5K run and walk to raise funds for a child diagnosed with Infantile Neuroaxonal Dystrophy and for the INADCure Foundation.
The program includes two entry categories: youth ages 0 to 14 and ages 15 and older, each covering a 5K distance (3.1 miles). Early registration pricing through September 23 includes a race shirt for youth at $25 and for adults at $35. From September 24 through race day the fees increase to $30 for youth and $40 for adults. Same day registration is available but a race shirt is not guaranteed. Packet pickup is held at Levy Park on the morning of the race.
A portion of funds raised will help the family purchase medical equipment and make home modifications. A large portion will support the INADCure Foundation, a 501c3 nonprofit working with researchers on gene therapy research for Infantile Neuroaxonal Dystrophy.
Event features listed by the organizer include food, activities for children, a bake sale, auction and raffle items, music, defined age group categories that span youth through 70 plus, and awards for top overall male and female plus first through third male and female in each age group.
