Race Dedication
In memory of our fallen Rotarian, John Scoles, we would like to dedicate this 5K/10K race in his honor. John was an influential member of our Fillmore community, a long time Rotarian, and a former high school and collegiate athlete. He could be seen daily running throughout our town. Our t-shirt design includes a runner with a J & S design to commemorate his memory.
