Lamarque Elementary’s Autism Awareness 5k: Inaugural Race in Honor of Chris Tilton

Join us for the first annual Lamarque Elementary Autism Awareness 5K, a community-centered race dedicated to raising awareness, promoting inclusion, and honoring the life and legacy of Chris Tilton.

This chip-timed 5K will take place on April 11, 2026, in North Port, welcoming runners, walkers, families, and supporters of all ages and abilities. Whether you’re racing for a personal best or walking in support of a meaningful cause, this event is about coming together as a community to celebrate understanding, acceptance, and compassion.

All proceeds benefit autism awareness initiatives connected to Lamarque Elementary, helping foster a more inclusive environment for students and families.

Come run, walk, or cheer—every step makes a difference. 💙
