2024 Scooty's Run 5K

Scooty's Run is a movement event to raise awareness for mental health and help raise donations for The Scooty Fund, a non-profit dedicated to advancing mental health culture in ways that enhance the well-being of young people. The race is in honor of The Scooty Fund's namesake Will "Scooty" Taylor and is meant to pay homage to his athletic legacy.
