He believed in the power of local TV and events that help build up and support the city we all call home. 'I want to make sure that everyone knows today that we are remembering Bill Anderson. He was a very special member of our community that we lost this last August. He was a supporter of Make-A-Wish foundation, of our pizza run, and he was the general manager of KRQE,' said President of Wisechoice Foods, LLC, Season Chavez.
This year's event included a 1-mile fun run or walk, a 5K, and 10K. Donations were encouraged, and all proceeds went to New Mexico's Make-A-Wish Foundation.
