Each year, the Fools Five Road Race proudly recognizes an individual whose dedication, heart, and service embody the spirit of the Betty Carlson Volunteer Award.

In 2026, we are honored to celebrate Dave Riebel as this year’s recipient. 💙

In a truly special moment, Dave’s son, Jackson, had the honor of recognizing his dad, while Betty’s husband, Al, presented the award, making it a meaningful tribute that brought together family, tradition, and community.

In Jackson’s own words: “What sets Principal Dave apart is the work he and the staff at Lewiston Altura Elementary School have done to involve the next generation of community members in the Fools Five and its fight against cancer. At LA Elementary, Fools Five season is something kids look forward to, filled with pep rallies, prizes, teaches in silly costumes and pies in principal’s faces. Students are shown that supporting those in need is fun, and even the hardest problems can be solved with teamwork and the right attitude. Elementary and intermediate school students have raised tens of thousands of dollars for cancer research, including more than $16,000 in 2026.

As Dave has faced his own battle with pancreatic cancer, the same community that he has worked to build has embraced and supported him in return.”

We are rooting for you, Dave, and your impact does not go unnoticed. Thank you for everything you do to make Fools Five what it is today. Congratulations on this well-deserved honor! đź‘Ź

At last Saturday’s race, we were proud to present a check for more than $28,000 to the Gundersen Medical Foundation.

These funds go directly toward vital research in the fight to find a cure for cancer—something that impacts so many in our community and beyond.

This incredible contribution wouldn’t be possible without our runners, walkers, volunteers, donors, and supporters. Thank you for showing up, giving back, and making a difference.

We’re still riding the high from an incredible night—this year’s Fools Five auction brought in more than $68,000 for cancer research and more than $39,000 for our local cancer support group! 💙

We are beyond grateful for the dedicated, behind-the-scenes work of our amazing auction committee. Your time, creativity, and energy are what make this event such a success year after year.

And to everyone who showed up, raised their paddles, and bid generously—thank you. Your support truly makes a difference and helps us continue to fund life-saving cancer research.

What a night, what a community, and what a cause. đź’«
