If you had the privilege to meet Elayne Bishop, you knew a woman with a heart of gold - living life to its fullest. Blessed with a contagious laugh, spirited soul and quick wit, Elayne was always willing to lend a hand or an ear. Passionate about life, she was never one to back away from a challenge, she blazed her own path while enriching the lives of those around her along the way. Her drive to excel was prevalent in everything she did but loving her family and friends is what she cared about most. A loving wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend- she left a tremendous impact on our community.
The Elayne Bishop Love Run serves as our annual reminder of her unmatched light, joy, and compassion. Bring your pink and glitter as we celebrate her life!
Let's fight with LOVE!! Please join us for a morning of running, walking, costume contests, and community spirit! All funds will go directly to the High Country Breast Cancer Association.
