Organiser's Description

THE CAUSE Near the conclusion of each school year, the Bartholomew Consolidated School Foundation (BCSF) acknowledges a deserving educator from the Bartholomew Consolidated School Corporation (BCSC). The Good, Better, Best recognition awarded in honor of two BCSC Hall of Fame, long-time educators (Ross Wallace and Chuck Grimes) goes to a BCSC employee that has gone above and beyond and outside the box in their passionate attempt to make education as positive and memorable of an experience as possible for the students they serve. Our hope is that proceeds from this race will continue to pay tribute to the legacy of not only Mr. Wallace/Mr. Grimes and this awards recipients, but also draw attention to deserving educators everywhere for a long time to come.
