Those of us who knew Ron Graham knew him as a man of faith and as a visionary community member, with an unwavering commitment to the youth of Chautauqua County.
As many now know, Ron passed away on February 2, 2023, after a brief ten month battle with gastroesophageal cancer. His family, friends, coaches, and former athletes want to continue his legacy.
To honor him and continue his personal mission to the youth in our community we will be hosting Ronnie’s Way 5K on Saturday, August 2, 2025.
Proceeds from the run will fund the a memorial scholarship and the Ron Graham Memorial Fund at the Chautauqua Region Community Foundation.
We invite all to register below to participate in the run/walk with us on and join in on the post-finish fun as we come together to remember a truly great mentor, coach and friend.
