walk Scholarship race is put on by David’s

family and friends. We also get help from

hills thru the streets of Emporium. Race finishes at

the high school track. Register on race day at the

Cameron County High School cafeteria until 8:45 a.m.

All proceeds from the race/ walk will benefit the

David Hutton Track Scholarship Fund. The fund

was established after David passed away following

an automobile accident in Sept. 2005.

An annual financial award is presented to a Cameron

County senior who exemplifies similar high academic

achievement and is also a member of the track team

as David was. We would graciously accept any

donations to the scholarship fund. Make your check

out to the "David Hutton Track Scholarship." Thank

you for your contribution. David was also a member

of the Elk County Striders.

David was a high school and collegiate track and field

athlete. During his high school career he competed in

many local 5k road races and was a state qualifier in

the 800 meters. He continued his running career at

Duquesne University where he competed in track and

field for four years.

Following his graduation from his bachelors he continued

to run during graduate school and would make the trip

up from Pittsburgh to contribute to the local races he had

come accustomed to. He loved to run and would do the

best he could to fit running into his hectic life.

Before his passing he had earned a bachelors of science

in Athletic Training from Duquesne University in 2002,

his Masters in Education from the University of Pittsburgh

in Exercise Physiology and was also pursuing a PhD from

the University of Pittsburgh. He had worked with many

organizations in the around Pittsburgh including UPMC,

Three Rivers Fitness, and his favorite place Locke’s

Fitness Studio.

David strove to improve the health and wellbeing of others.

We hope to carry on his work by encouraging individuals

of all ages to become active in fitness, improve their overall

wellness, and to most importantly have fun along the way
