Thank You, Pumpkin Runners!

What a beautiful day for the 28th Annual Jared Coones Memorial Pumpkin Run/Walk!

Our hearts are full of gratitude! Thank you to our incredible participants, sponsors, donors, and volunteers who helped make this year's event such a tremendous success. Your generosity, enthusiasm, and unwavering support continue to honor the memories of Jared, Jayne, and Judy, while making a meaningful difference in the lives of those fighting cancer.

What an amazing turnout! We celebrated 3,072 registered participants, an 11% increase over last year! We'll be sharing our fundraising results soon, but in the meantime, donations are still being accepted. Every dollar helps us continue our mission!

A big thank you to everyone who supported our silent auction and raffles! Congratulations to our lucky winners:

Chiefs vs. 49ers – December 27th: Alison Banikowski

A Special Thank You to Black Bob Elementary School!

For 28 years, you've opened your doors and your hearts to our family and the Pumpkin Run community. 28 years of running together. 28 years of remembering those we've lost. 28 years of supporting those still in the fight.

Your kindness, dedication, and friendship have helped make this event what it is today. Black Bob Elementary, this will always be YOUR race!

To our entire Pumpkin Run family, thank you for another unforgettable year. Together, we continue to Run, Remember & Support!

From our family to yours, thank you for helping us turn heartbreak into hope for 28 incredible years.

We can't wait to see you again on Saturday, October 9, 2027!

With heartfelt gratitude,

The Coones Family & Pumpkin Run Planning Committee
