Event Beneficiary

In honor of Olivia's life, the Olivia Kate Pugh Strength and Shield Scholarship was created. The name is derived from Psalm 28:7, a guide to Olivia's life and a foundation for how she viewed the world.

"She believed she could so she did." Olivia was an athlete on the softball and flag football fields, on the basketball court, and on the track. Whenever possible, she chose 3 as her jersey number. She was president of Beta Club, a member of the National Honor Society, Science Honor Society, Key Club, Octagon Club, Spark, challenged herself with honors and AP courses, and somehow found time to work at Chick-Fil-A. Her kindness and shining light were contagious to all who were lucky enough to know her.

In honor of her, this scholarship will go to hard-working and highly motivated students who share their light and kindness at Harrison High School. Harrison faculty and coaches will nominate students. There will be at least one scholarship presented annually.

Course & Timing

This year we have Cobb County police support and approval to run on Due West Road. Course will start at Harrison High School, run along Due West Road with a turn-around at Burnt Hickory Baptist Church and back to Harrison. 

We will be chip timing the start & finish.
