The KC/TL Scholarship run is held annually on the Saturday morning of Tecumseh’s annual Appleumpkin Festival.

This is a fund raiser for the Kelly Carter and Thomas Leffler Scholarship which is awarded to ancillary medicine students every year since 1995. This is a family friendly event and as such there are no application fees. We do request donations, 100% of which go to the Lenawee County Education Foundation for distribution. To date Carter Rehab has granted 55 scholarships, and the more we raise through this event, the more we are able to provide.

We look forward to seeing you on Oct 14th at the run, and at the Appleumpkin Festival which you are sure to enjoy.
