The "March" was the brainchild of Jerry Edmundson, former director of the Dyersburg/Dyer County Union Mission. Edmundson created the race in 1991 to promote the Mission's youth programs, and the race has been held on Dyersburg's Square the third Saturday of October every year since. In 2016, when the Mission relinquished sponsorship of the event, Sarah Alley and a committee of supporters renewed the race as the Autumn March for ALS Awareness. Proceeds go towards Tennessee ALS Chapter, local Senior Scholarships, and supporting Matthew 25:40, Inc. Sarah Alley has been living with ALS for 13 years. She attributes this to her Faith in God and love of family, friends, community, and church family. The race will have new courses for all races beginning the Downtown Farmers Market. Besides the race, there will be an Auto Show, food trucks, vendors, DJ, bounce house /slide, cake walk, face painting, and door prizes. Bring your family for a day of fun!
