Event Description

JOIN US for the Veteran's Day 5k on Saturday, November 9, 2024 benefiting the American Legion Post 207!   

ABOUT THE CAUSE:

The Tucker American Legion Post 207 strives to provide Veterans a sacred place dedicated to improving the lives of veterans and our community.  We accomplish through our motto of "Rescue-Restore-Repay":

RESCUE: Seek out veterans in crisis or needing a mission.

RESTORE: Promote good health and good skills.

REPAY: Pay back with community support and community fun.

The Veteran's Day 5K serves as both a fundraising opportunity for the Post as well as an opportunity to interact with the local Tucker community,  Veterans and non-Veterans alike.  Proceeds collected from the race will further the Post's missions of "Rescue-Restore-Repay" for Veterans in the Tucker and surrounding area.
