Cade’s Cause is a community event created to bring people together in honor of Dr. Cade Carlson and to raise awareness about the lasting impact of concussions and repetitive head impacts.
The day will include a run/walk open to all ages and abilities, along with time to gather, reflect, and support one another. Whether participants come to run, walk, or simply show up, the goal is to create a space of connection, remembrance, and purpose.
Over the past nine months, we have been grieving our unimaginable loss and learning how to navigate life without Cade. We are ready to come
together as a community to honor his life, his legacy, and his generous final gift. This event is not only about remembering Cade, but about turning loss into action — raising awareness and supporting research that may help protect others in the future.
Registration fee includes T-shirt and bib. Remaining funds collected will be directly donated to Concussion & CTE Foundation in honor of Cade. If you would like to make additional donations please donate in Cade’s name HERE.
