Our C.A.R chapter participated in the Hero Hill Climb over Memorial Day weekend. We had to get up super early to get there in time to help set up. Our friend Tisha and her husband were the people who started this up.
This Hill Climb was 3 miles to the top and 3 miles back and you would take the picture of someone who had died in the military or a veteran who died of suicide.
This is George. He did a Hill Climb taking the names of all those people who had died of suicide on the entire Appalachian Trail. It took him a few months, but helped him with PTSD. A film was made about it.
Ready to run. McKay was asked to take one of the names from George's trek up on this hike.
They did it pretty fast!
They bring the picture/name up and then get an American flag to bring back down.
All the flags at the end of the event.
The board where the participants hung the picture of their veteran up at the top of the hill climb.
