Mark’s Noggin Joggers was created in 2011 when Mark Michel was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. The Race for Hope is a 5k Walk/Run that is sponsored by the National Brain Tumor Society. In 2012, shortly after we participated in our first Race for Hope, Mark Michel passed away after a courageous and hard fought battle with brain cancer.

Mark’s family set out on a mission to help his legacy live on by creating Mark’s Noggin Joggers. Each year, we host a benefit in memory of Mark, with all proceeds being directly donated to the National Brain Tumor Society in his name. Mark’s Noggin Joggers will be hosting our 6^th fundraiser on September 23, 2017. The event will be held at the Heritage Ball Room at 2107 MacDade Blvd, Holmes, Pa 19043. Each year, we are lucky enough to have local organizations donate items for raffle.  All money raised from this event will go directly to the National Brain Tumor Society. Their work helps victims of brain tumors and their families to work towards a cure for this awful disease.
