Description
This event honors the memory of Christopher Beckett, who passed away in 2019 after a courageous battle with Neurofibromatosis.
The Christopher Beckett Memorial Scholarship Fund along with Chris' family have created a 5K and 1 mile fun run/walk in order to keep the scholarship going in his memory. The scholarship is awarded to a North Schuylkill graduating senior attending an institution of higher education seeking a degree related to the health care profession. Chris, a 2004 graduate of North Schuylkill Jr./Sr. High School, was a loving son, brother, uncle and friend to many. He always had a passion for learning, especially all the details of the medical information his doctors provided him. This directed him into his field of study and in 2008 he graduated with a degree in Health Information Technology.
The event will take place on November 2, 2024 in Landingville, PA along the Bartram section of the Schuylkill River Trail. This is an out-and-back flat course with a lot of shade (great for a new PR!) T-shirts are guaranteed to those who register by October 20th. Shirts will be given to registrants while supplies last for those who register after October 20th. Packet pickup is TBD.
All proceeds go to the Christopher Beckett Memorial Scholarship Fund, a 501(c)(3) charity.
