Running To Honor 5K @ Heritage Park
Jul 26 @ 7:30 am
Running To Honor 5K @ Heritage Park | Taylor | Michigan | United States

The Running To Honor 5K is a timed, family friendly walk (or run) focused on keeping the memory of our Fallen Soldiers & Veterans alive and reminding others that Freedom is never free. The start time of the 5K walk (or run) is 8:00 AM in front of the Sheridan Pavilion. The Kids .5K will start at 7:30 AM.

The theme this year is the Afghanistan War. The Afghanistan War lasted from 2001 to 2021. We are hoping we can educate others in the community about what the Afghanistan War was about and keep the history and memory of our Fallen Soldiers that made the ultimate sacrifice in Afghanistan alive as we say their names and walk (or run) in memory of them.

The Taylor Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post 4422 and Running To Honor organizations will receive the proceeds raised from this event.
