With great appreciation to all who came before us, this page is devoted to individuals and organizations who championed the importance of the Dragon Run. Some of the individuals and organizations we will cover pre-date the founding of the Friends of Dragon Run. Others are the amazing collection of individuals that founded FODR, or played a major role in its growth and work to preserve, protect, and encourage wise use of the Dragon Run.
