Scott’s Fun Run gets under way Sunday, June 1.

The event raised more than $2,100 for the Hope Institute, which provides drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in West Milford.

The free event raises awareness of the importance of mental health. It is named for Scott Stalbaum, a 2005 graduate of West Milford High School who died of a drug overdose in 2018.

Participants pose for a photo before the run begins.
