The Pumpkin Run™ 5K Has Been Cancelled
Thank you to everyone who registered for The Pumpkin Run™ 5K, benefiting Buy A Pumpkin Feed A Child®. After careful consideration, we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s race, which was scheduled for Saturday, November 14, 2026, at the Town of Tioga in Newberry, FL. Packet pickup on November 12–13 will also not take place.
Registration fell short of the level needed to cover the costs of putting on the event. Because 100% of our proceeds go to feeding hungry children in Alachua County and around the world, we chose not to spend more on the race than it would raise for the cause.
Your options: Registered participants can choose one of the following using the options below:
Keep my registration fee: Your fee will stay with Buy A Pumpkin Feed A Child® as a contribution to our mission.
Get a refund: Your registration fee will be returned to your original payment method.
Simply select your choice and click Continue.
