Organiser's description

This event is a fundraiser for the Joshua Edward Norman Memorial Scholarship, an annual award that will be presented to a senior at Mayfield Jr./Sr. High School pursuing higher education.

This event and the scholarship it supports honors the life of a truly exceptional individual. As a member of the Mayfield Class of 2009, Joshua was an exceptional student who excelled in many subjects, but had a particular passion for reading, studying literature, and learning other languages. His love of the French language led him to study abroad in Paris and ultimately build an amazing life in Toulouse, France. In addition to his academic pursuits, Joshua also demonstrated remarkable talent and dedication in his extracurricular activities. He was an active member of the Band, Drama Club, Cross-Country Running, Nordic Skiing, and Track and Field teams. Through his involvement in these activities, Joshua embodied the importance of pursuing one's passions and interests beyond the classroom. Perhaps most importantly, Josh was a kind, supportive friend, and a leader to his peers. He radiated positivity, even when faced with immense challenges. He had an amazing ability to make everyone in his life feel special and the impact he had on those around him continues to inspire others to this day.

Please join us for a 5k run/walk starting at the Mayfield Elementary School track and pavilion. The course will head out on North Main Street, make a counter-clockwise loop through the village, and finish back on the track. We'll also be holding a fun run loop around the track, intended for kids 10(ish) and under.

If you can't make it on race day but would still like to support the cause, please consider visiting the donation page to help cover event expenses and contribute to the scholarship fund for future seniors.
