The event requires registration.
Inspired by Jake Silverman, a 15-year-old Millburn High School student who lives with dystonia, Jake's Ride is being held in an effort to raise awareness and find a cure for dystonia and Parkinson's disease. Jake's Ride will raise money for The Bachmann-Strauss Dystonia & Parkinson Foundation Inc., who's mission is to find better treatments, and ultimately cures, for the movement disorders, dystonia and Parkinson's disease, and to provide medical and patient information.
Jake's Ride is a family-oriented fundraiser with several courses of varying degrees of difficulty, with one-mile, five-mile, 10-mile and 20-mile routes traveling through Millburn-Short Hills. For those who cannot ride or prefer to walk, there is a one-mile walking route. The event will start at the Hartshorn Elementary School.
