THE MARCH
We're a group of Veterans from all branches of service that do a scenic 10 mile walk on Memorial Day. Many non Veteran "civilians" join us as well. This was started for these key reasons 1. To honor our fallen comrades 2. To raise public awareness for the holiday and 3. To create a good excuse for Veterans to hang out. Our route is the scenic 10 mile River Trail Loop of Hastings, MN. Along the route we'll have Honor Markers that feature our fallen comrades, or family or friends that made the ultimate sacrifice.
Yes, you can do it!
We walk at a 3mph pace and will have two stops for a 10-15 min break each time. At each stop, aka Check Point, we are greeted by awesome volunteers with great food and beverages. We do walk as a group. This is not a race of any kind. Also, you can stop anytime. We have volunteer drivers who can help you get back to your car.
Help Us Grow, Join Us!
Thanks to the new 10 mile route the participation as tripled, and we'd love to see many more in 2025! It is FREE for Veterans and again, anyone can walk. Early bird registration opens April 21st at $30 for Non Veterans. The cost goes to $35 after May 10th. That fee includes a stylin t-shirt for your collection, snacks along the way, plus a great meal afterwards.
Kids can walk too!
If you have a child under 18 they can walk so long as you are with them. Children 10 and under are just $10 each and they do get a shirt. Kids 11 plus are the standard $30 (early bird) or $35 (after May 10th).

What is the money for?
All donations and sponsorships go towards supporting the event and its growth. The more we can raise, the larger the event can be. This includes the Veterans Dinner the night prior, the tshirts, marketing and signage, supplies for the Honor Markers, AV/DJ at the finish, food for the meal following, plus any other supplies to support the march that we are unable to get donated. Your support allows us to keep the cost free for Veterans.
