Memorial Day weekend is often thought of as the unofficial start to summer. And while local towns took time out of the weekend festivities to remember the reason behind the holiday—to recognize and remember the men and women who died serving the United States as members of the Armed Forces—one local veteran wanted to do more.

That’s how Ryan Dodge, an outage scheduler with Constellation Energy, came up with the idea of a race to benefit those who offer their service to the country.

The Reed-Custer Board of Education signed off on a six year agreement with Constellation Energy’s Braidwood Station earlier this month, approving the property tax settlement agreement to bring the district millions of tax dollars through the year 2027.

The agreement places the Equalized Assessed value (EAV) of Braidwood Station at $500 million during the life of the agreement.

That agreement would place annual property taxes for Braidwood Station at $29.5 million. Of that, the Reed-Custer School District will collect $19.6 million.
