The race is 5k run/walk founded by the Marjory Stoneman Douglas cross-country team in honor of our beloved coach, Scott Beigel, who died a hero in the tragedy at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School on February 14th, 2018.
THIS EVENT WILL HAVE BOTH LIVE AND VIRTUAL OPTIONS. THIS WAY NO MATTER WHERE YOU ARE, YOU MAY STILL #RUNWITHSCOTT.
Proceeds are used to fulfill the mission of helping to send disadvantaged children touched by gun violence to summer camp.
About Scott:
Scott J. Beigel was 35 years old. Scott was a teacher, a coach, a camp counselor, a son, a grandson, a brother, an uncle, a nephew, a cousin, a friend and a hero. Scott was a very humble young man who never knew how much of an impact he had on others, especially children. Scott loved working with children.
Teaching afforded him the ability to continue with one of his life’s passions, working at sleep away camp. Scott ultimately wanted to have a positive impact on every child, no matter how young or old, no matter what the issues. Scott did volunteer work in South Africa with disadvantaged children. It is for this reason that we have combined Scott’s two life passions; his love for summer camp and his desire to teach and mentor children, that we started the Scott J. Beigel Memorial Fund.
The Mission: to help send disadvantaged children touched by gun violence to summer camp.
