The Bill Cross 5k will be held in Zona Rosa on Sunday October 12, 2025 at 8:00AM. The run is in memory of Bill Cross, former Mayor of Gladstone and devoted teacher, coach, administrator, mentor and role model for more than 35,000 area students.

Together, we can ensure that children in our community have the nutrition they need to learn, grow, and thrive!
