The Rolla Area Chamber of Commerce hosted their Annual Best Ever St. Pat’s 5K back in March. The event was a success with over 150 participants, raising approximately $3,500.
Proceeds from the races benefited the chamber’s Destination Rolla Fund.
The Destination Rolla Fund contributes to tourism-related projects and attractions in Rolla. According to the Rolla Area Chamber of Commerce, last year was a challenging year for the tourism industry, so the chamber decided to split the race proceeds among four different organizations, vital to Rolla’s tourism efforts.
The chamber recently presented checks for $875 to Ozark Actors Theatre, South Central Regional Veterans Group’s Veterans Memorial Park, Rolla Parks and Recreation Department and Rolla Saddle Club.
