The Buckeye Education Foundation sponsors this event and all proceeds will be used to benefit students of the Buckeye Local School district through grants awarded to support activities that enhance, enrich and supplement instructional opportunities.

Mr. Craig Bailey, the former superintendent of Buckeye Local Schools, was the founder of the foundation in 2003. Mr. Bailey was the first person to have the vision of what a positive impact establishing an education foundation could be for our district. Through much hard work, commitment, and perseverance, Mr. Bailey made that vision a reality at Buckeye!

We are honored to have had Mr. Craig J. Bailey serve our district with such high standards, excellence, and integrity. We hope you will join us by running with our Buckeye students and families to not only raise money to support our Buckeye School district but also to honor a legacy.
