Event Description
Come join the first annual 2-218th Remembrance Ruck and Food Drive, hosted by 2-218th Regimental Association and sponsored by 2-218th Field Artillery Battalion. March with local Oregon National Guard soldiers during a five mile charity march through Forest Grove in remembrance of our fallen men and women in uniform. Check out howitzers and military vehicles used by Field Artillery men and women across the country. Bring backpacks or rucksacks filled with non-perishable food to march with. All collected food will be donated to St. Vincent de Paul upon completion of the event!
