About the Ruck Challenge
Saturday, May 20th, 2023
The Ruck Challenge (TRC) 7th Annual competition seeks to develop teamwork and esprit de corps among the veterans engaged in rehabilitative programs in our community by challenging other agencies to compete in an event of endurance, strength, and strategy. By competing, you recognize the sacrifice veterans made to serve our country and take an active role to heal the invisible wounds of service our veterans have suffered.
LET’S RUCK UP – GET OUT THERE WALK/RUN – PARTICIPATE – DONATE
