47th Annual Founder’s Day Run
Written By Nick Hoeing
May 10th was the annual Founder’s Day Festival in Union and the Foundation was proud to be the presenting sponsor for the 47th Annual Founder’s Day Run. The race is a 10K and 5K and is the oldest and longest-standing road race in Franklin County and one of the oldest in the St. Louis metro area. We are happy to keep the event going and build the participation levels back to where it used to be. Since the Foundation took the event over we’ve seen some of the highest participation its had in years. All proceeds from the event benefit the Union R-XI Foundation.
