When you race with PMP Pals for the One-in-a-Million 5K Run/Walk, you’re helping us go the distance with Appendix Cancer. This rare disease, on the rise worldwide, affects one in a million people each year. Lace it up and celebrate life against the odds!

San Antonian Sheri Doss is grateful to be alive. Wanting to give back to both her local and peer support cancer communities. In 2024, Sheri established the One in a Million 5K Run/Walk to celebrate her 60th birthday and life beyond Pseudomyxoma Peritonei (PMP), closely related to appendix cancer. Sheri was diagnosed in 2021 with PMP, a rare disease affecting a small cross-section of the world - people of all ages, shapes, genders, and nationalities. After undergoing an intense lifesaving surgery known as CRS/HIPEC, her health returned due, in large part, to her daily walking routine. Sheri thrives because of her positive attitude, love for walking, and the online support she found through PMP Pals.

Net proceeds from the One in a Million 5K Run/Walk benefit PMP Pals, a global network of patients and caregivers living beyond an Appendix Cancer diagnosis, and related conditions like PMP which affect the gastrointestinal system, digestion, and nutrition. As you run/walk the course at McAllister Park, educational signage explains this rare cancer without a cure on the rise among young people under 40. Register today and lace it up for Appendix Cancer!

This year, our FREE movie nights on the Will Naylor Smith River Walk Plaza come with a twist! Screenings now happen on Saturdays, featuring quarterly themes showcasing some of your favorite films.

Join us on the second Saturday of the month for a perfect evening under the stars. The plaza opens at 6 PM, and the movie begins at 7 PM. Bring your lawn chairs or a cozy blanket to enjoy the show on our stunning 32-foot LED video wall! Full concessions and a bar will be available to enhance your movie experience.

🌧️ Rain or Shine: These events will go on regardless of the weather. If the skies don’t cooperate, we’ll move the fun indoors.

🚫 Please note: Pets, outside food, and outside drinks are not permitted on the plaza or in our theaters.

Not sure what to expect? Here are a few tips for making the most of your night out:

• Parking: Convenient parking is available at the Tobin Center Parking Garage (227 4th Street, 78205).
• Arrive Early: Secure your perfect spot and avoid navigating through crowds in the dark after the movie starts.
• Seating: Bring blankets or low lawn chairs (no taller than 32" to ensure everyone has a great view). Chairs will also be available on-site as supplies allow.
• Stay Cozy: Cooler evenings call for layers—a long-sleeved shirt or light jacket can make all the difference.
• Share the Fun: Invite your friends! Movie nights are a fantastic way to gather with loved ones and enjoy a relaxing evening together.
