On Saturday, March 16th, the 10th Annual Judy M. Merritt Memorial 5K & Family Fun Day was held at Hoover’s Veterans Park.
Runners enjoyed a low-cost 5K with swag bags, t-shirts, and medals for winners! Participants ran, walked, or just registered to support our great students, as all proceeds from this race go to scholarships for JSCC students in need.

The annual Judy M. Merritt Memorial 5K is held in honor and memory of Jefferson State Community College’s former president Dr. Judy M. Merritt. Serving as President for 35 years, she was the first female president of an Alabama college; her leadership and vision were unparalleled. Judy, as she preferred to be called, embodied the spirit of Jefferson State and our mission to serve all in our community.
“While the dream for many has been achieved, the fight for pathways to education, equality, and inclusion continues.”
~ Judy M. Merritt
