đź’— A New Chapter Begins. đź’—

Registration opens 6/26/26 at 5:00CST

Three years ago, Skippin & Sippin was created with one simple goal: to bring phriends together for an unforgettable day while making a meaningful difference in the lives of those facing breast cancer.

Because of this incredible community, that vision has grown into something much bigger than we ever imagined.

Today, we’re proud to introduce Skippin & Sippin, Inc.

While we continue awaiting our official IRS determination recognizing us as a 501(c)(3) public charity, we’ve spent the past several months laying the foundation to responsibly expand our mission, strengthen our organization, and increase our impact.

Born from the spirit of Meeting of the Minds, inspired by the generosity of the Parrot Head community, and proudly rooted in Gulf Shores, our vision is to provide hope, support, and meaningful assistance to breast cancer patients in our host community, its surrounding communities, and our fellow Parrot Head phriends in need.

As we continue to grow, so will our impact. In the months ahead, we’ll begin sharing more about the patient assistance programs, community initiatives, volunteer opportunities, and partnerships we’re developing to further our mission. What started as a race is becoming a year-round commitment to serving others.

None of this would be possible without our participants, sponsors, bralunteers, PHIP, Inc., LuLu’s Gulf Shores, and every person who has believed in this mission from the very beginning. Thank you for helping turn an idea into something that has the potential to change lives for years to come.

This isn’t the finish line.

It’s only the beginning. 💗

And tomorrow, we’ll kick off this exciting new chapter by opening registration for the 4th Annual Skippin & Sippin 5K & Fun Run/Walk! Guess what time? 5 o'clock! We can’t wait to celebrate with all of you.

🌴🦜 Still deciding where to roost for Meeting of the Minds in Gulf Shores?
Good news — we’ve still got a few coveted spots left at the luxurious Gulf Place Condos, and these beauties are perfect for phriends, phamily, and anyone who doesn’t mind a little shared‑bathroom bonding.

🏖️ 4‑Bedroom Units (with Bonus Room!)

Four spacious King bedrooms, each with its own ensuite

Bonus room with a twin + trundle — perfect for the late‑night storytellers

Bonus room doesn’t have its own bathroom, but hey… we’re Parrot Heads. We share rum, we can share a shower

The more folks you pack in, the lower the cost per person — teamwork makes the beach week cheaper

🌅 The Penthouse (Yes… THE Penthouse)

Six bedrooms, all with ensuite bathrooms

Sweeping Gulf AND City views

Massive patio for sunrise coffee, sunset cocktails, and everything in between

This is the “treat yourself” option — or the “split it with enough friends and suddenly it’s affordable” option
