Began in 1995, the annual Labor Day "Run With Carl" is the primary funding vehicle for the Carl D. Schillig Memorial Fund. The Bettendorf Rotary is the title sponsor for Run With Carl.

Carl Schillig, a student at Pleasant Valley High School, was 15 years old when he died in a car-pedestrian accident while participating in the Civil War Reenactment at the Village of East Davenport, Sept. 17, 1994.

Carl was active in numerous school, community and church activities. The memorial fund was established by Carl's family to perpetuate his memory and enthusiasm for life by providing college scholarships to graduates of Pleasant Valley. The first scholarship was awarded in 1998. In 2002, the scholarship award was extended to include graduates of Bettendorf High School.

The scholarship is given to a student with a minimum 2.3+ grade point average who exemplifies Carl's spirit through participation in school, sports and community and church activities.

Each recipient receives a $4,000 scholarship over 4 years, contingent on satisfactory performance.
