All proceeds from any “Semper Running” event will help fund Scholarship opportunities for Walworth County High School Seniors who run on their schools official cross country team or compete in long distance track (800 meters or more). Qualifying students will have the chance to apply to receive a scholarship from the Foundation that will be applied to their accepting school.
