Frisco Education Foundation Scholarship

Hello Trail Running Friends!

Big congratulations to the first North Texas Trail Runners scholarship recipient - Mackenzie Payne! Mackenzie is a Frisco cross country runner and will be soon heading off to her first year of college where she will also be running! A part of the proceeds for the Frisco Trail Race were used to establish a scholarship that will be awarded to a Frisco Education Foundation applicant involved in cross country and we will continue to award the North Texas Trail Runner's scholarship as long as we are able to do so!


By the way, Mackenzie is signed up for the 15K so please sign up soon and join us at the Frisco Trail Race Finale (5K 10K 15K) on June 15th!


This will be the last race on the trail as we know it as we lose over half the trail to the PGA development on July 1st. There are some tremendous volunteers who have helped tame the jungle and repair the tremendous rain we've had and it is looking really good; especially given how many trails are still closed.


See you there!
