About the Event

Join the fun and fight against cancer at the 17th Annual Pink Pumpkin Run on Halloween morning, Saturday, October 31, 2026. Hosted by Marshall Medical Centers Foundation, this cherished community tradition aims to raise funds for mammography and other essential cancer services right here in Guntersville.
The event takes place at Guntersville Civitan Park, offering a joyous atmosphere filled with music, kids' activities, photo opportunities, and the highlight of the day—the Pink Pancake Brunch.
