Please Join us for the 2022 Sully Shuffle as we Honor the Life and Legacy of Skip Sullivan!


What is the Sully Shuffle?

The Sully Shuffle for 2022 will be a 5K fun run with a shorter option to run or walk named after Skip Sullivan. The Sully Shuffle namesake was a lifelong Oak Lawn resident and retired Oak Lawn Community High School teacher, Skip Sullivan. During his tenure at OLCHS, he served as the Assistant Girls and Boys Basketball, Football, Golf and Head Varsity Baseball Coach. Sully gallantly fought Parkinson’s disease for over 20 years before he passed away in November of 2021.

The Sully Shuffle Foundation is a 501(c)3 non-for-profit organization committed to raising funds to assist in the fight against Parkinson disease. The foundation consists of volunteers who donate their time and effort in the belief that one day they will find a cure.

Sully’s family was overwhelmed with the outpouring of love and support received in the days, weeks and months after his passing, and it’s obvious his positive attitude and eternal optimism continues to inspire many. With that in mind, we are having one final shuffle in Sully’s honor! Our hope is to fund a scholarship in his name at OLCHS while also continuing our support of the American Parkisons Disease Midwest Chapter. We are proud to have donated $231,000 to their efforts to fund PD research and will maintain that partnership while also creating a scholarship for high school seniors who emulate Sully’s positive attitude throughout their four years of high school.
