Organiser's Description

Mr. Craig Bailey, the former superintendent of Buckeye Local Schools, was the founder of the Buckeye Education 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 raise money to support our Buckeye School district and honor a legacy.

You are invited to join Buckeye students, families, businesses, and community members for a family-focused event that includes a 5k race and 1-mile fun run or walk on Saturday, May 10th, at the Buckeye Track and Soccer Complex located behind the elementary buildings at Buckeye Local Schools, 3044 Columbia Road in Medina.
