This event is a community 5k held on 10/24/2026 in Anson County, Wadesboro, North Carolina. Registration for the race carries a fee of $25. Proceeds from the event go directly to funding a memorial scholarship.
The scholarship supports high school seniors who plan to pursue careers in skilled trades. Eligible fields include electrical work, welding, HVAC, plumbing, automotive technology, and similar hands-on trades. The award is intended to help cover training or education related to those career paths.
The scholarship was established by family members to honor a young person who was passionate about hands-on work and who was pursuing a path in the trades through local internship and employment experience. The memorial acknowledges that individual’s work ethic and interest in practical, skilled occupations and channels event proceeds toward assisting another student to follow a similar path.
