Join the Dancing Pickles at Bass Pro Cheering Challenge!

 

Get Your Green On: 

Mark your calendars and set those clocks back – the Seminole Holland Neighborhood Association needs YOU on Sunday, November 2nd!

We're taking on the Bass Pro Cheering Challenge again, and this year we're bringing the fun as The Dancing Pickles! This isn't just about cheering on marathon runners (though that's pretty awesome) – it's about winning cash for our neighborhood and funding the beloved Summer Bash in June.

Why Your Energy Matters

To qualify for a Bass Pro grant, we need at least 10 volunteers with a minimum of 4 people present at all times throughout the race. Translation: we need your smiling face, your loudest cheer, and maybe your best pickle dance moves!

The Details You Need

When: Sunday, November 2, 2025
Don't forget: Clocks fall back one hour that morning!

Where: South Jefferson Avenue & East McGee Street (one block south of E Cherokee Street)
🅿️ Parking available on Cherokee Street

Setup Time: 6:00 AM (first runners pass shortly after 7:00 AM)

Shifts: Two hours each – volunteer for one or more, or even just part of a shift. Every minute helps!

What We're Bringing to the Party

We've got everything you need to be an award-winning cheering section:

  • Slip-over pickle costumes (yes, really!)
  • Eye-catching signage
  • Noisemakers galore
  • Beverages for runners
  • A winning attitude

What to Bring

  • Yourself (preferably in green!)
  • A lawn chair for comfort
  • Snacks and water
  • Your favorite noisemaker (or use ours)
  • Enthusiasm and your best dance moves

Not a Morning Person?

No problem! Any donation of time will be gratefully accepted. We'll work with your schedule.
