The Cpl. Christopher G. Scherer Memorial Foundation was created to honor the life and legacy of U.S. Marine Christopher G. Scherer and all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation. We are committed to preserving their memory while making a meaningful difference in the lives of veterans, active-duty service members, and military families.

What began as a tribute has grown into a powerful community movement rooted in remembrance, gratitude, and action. Each Memorial Day weekend, our community comes together for the annual 5K Run/Walk—a heartfelt tradition that welcomes participants of all ages and abilities. Whether you run, walk, volunteer, or cheer from the sidelines, your involvement helps carry forward a powerful mission of remembrance and unity.

This event is more than a race—it is a chance to reflect, honor, and stand together in support of those who served.

Christopher G. Scherer and all fallen heroes continues to inspire and impact generations to come.
