10th Anniversary - Waves of Gray - 5K; Brain Cancer/Tumor Awareness Walk
In 2027, Waves of Gray will proudly celebrate its 10th Anniversary! What began as a way to honor the memory of Fred K. Fenton II has grown into a powerful community united by hope, remembrance, and a shared commitment to fighting brain cancer/tumors.
Fred lost his battle with glioblastoma in November 2016. During his illness, our family experienced firsthand the fear, uncertainty, and helplessness that so many brain tumor patients and their caregivers face. Out of that heartbreak came a mission: to bring the Jacksonville brain cancer/tumor community together, raise awareness of this devastating disease, and help advance brain cancer/tumor research so that, one day, more families will have hope for a different outcome.
Ten years later, Fred’s legacy continues to make a difference. Waves of Gray has grown into more than a 5K walk. It is a community of survivors, fighters, caregivers, families, friends, and loved ones who stand together to remember those we have lost, honor those still fighting, support those navigating a diagnosis, and invest in a brighter future through research.
As we celebrate this incredible milestone, we invite you to join us for our 10th Anniversary celebration on Saturday, May 8, 2027! Whether you walk in memory of someone you love, in honor of a survivor or fighter, in support of a friend or family member, or simply because you believe in our mission, you are part of something meaningful. Every step represents a story, every ribbon represents a life touched by brain cancer, and every dollar brings us closer to a future with more answers and better treatment options.
Waves of Gray proudly continues its support to Baptist MD Anderson Cancer Center in Jacksonville, Florida. 100% of all funds raised benefit the Waves of Gray Neuro-Oncology Endowment, which supports research programs through Baptist MD Anderson Cancer Center. Your participation, generosity, and continued support help make this research possible.
For 10 years, we have walked together in memory, in honor, and in hope. As we celebrate how far we have come, we look forward to the difference we can make together in the years ahead.
Join us as we celebrate 10 years of Waves of Gray! Honoring the past, supporting the present, and changing the future through research.
We look forward to celebrating this special anniversary with you on May 8, 2027!
