CVS is an unexplained disorder of children and adults that was first described by Dr. S. Gee in 1882. The condition is characterized by 
recurrent, prolonged attacks of severe nausea, vomiting, prostration with no apparent cause. In some there is severe abdominal pain. Vomiting occurs at frequent intervals for hours or days (1-4 most commonly). The episodes tend to be similar to each other in symptoms and duration and are self-limited with return of normal health between episodes.
Run for the Bucket is CVSA's largest fundraiser of the year with all proceeds benefiting the Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome research at the Medical College of Wisconsin

The race starts and finishes at the Rotary building along the Fox River. Runner's names will be scrolling on the finish line TV and our announcer will be calling out your new chipped timed personal record!
Don't forget the kiddos
There will be a 0.50 mile kids fun run before the 5K. The kid's run will not be chipped timed but they will get a bib and run through the finish line chute. All children receive a finisher's medal.
