Benefiting PEARL and the Ben Roberds Scholarship Fund
Join us for PEARL's 6th Annual Roberds Run 4 Your Life 5K & Walk to Remember, an annual fundraiser benefiting PEARL and the Ben Roberds Scholarship Fund. It honors the life and legacy of Ben Roberds, whose career was cut short by cancer on April 24, 2019, at the age of 37. Each year, it creates opportunities for graduates of the Benton County Specialty Court to continue their education through an accredited two- or four-year college or vocational school.
