Buffalo Stroll

Lace up for a cause!

Join us this April for Autism Awareness Month and the 2026 Buffalo Stroll, a 5K timed race and a 100-meter dash to support The Villages Charter School Autism Center (TVCSAC), which is dedicated to serving learners on the autism spectrum.

Following the race, spend time with family and friends enjoying the Family Fun Event, featuring bounce houses, face painting and balloon art. Learn more about autism as you wander over to our Services Showcase, allowing you to connect with local businesses that serve the autism community.
