PA Speaker of the House, Dennis O’Brien will serve as the event’s Honorary Chair. Speaker O’Brien has been a legislative champion on behalf of children and families impacted by an autism spectrum disorder.

There will be cash awards for the overall male and female winners of Logan’s Run 5K and a recognition gift for the male/female winner in each age group. Special recognition will also go to the individual and team who raise the most funds.

Refreshments, raffle prizes, inflatable amusements for the kids, information about autism, and autism related items for sale will all be part of the event.

All proceeds raised for the event will go to the Greater Harrisburg Area Chapter of the Autism Society of America (ASA) and benefit individuals and families living with autism in a 12 county area within the Capital Region.

The Chapter is committed to providing information and education to families and professional care providers; personal support and networking opportunities; social and recreational events for both children and adults; and advocacy for the interests of individuals and families served by the Chapter. The Chapter also supports the efforts of the local and national therapeutic and research communities.

The cause of autism remains unknown and there is no cure, but your willingness to participate in this event provides hope and the promise of a better quality of life for those diagnosed and their families. On behalf of the Greater Harrisburg Area Chapter of the ASA, we thank you in advance for your generous support.
