After parading through town, RFTW will stop for the 30th year in a row at Rainelle Elementary School to reunite with the school children and community who mean so much to members of RFTW. After lunch, a presentation and memorial ceremony will occur at the school. Please come and show your support.
Run For The Wall is an annual motorcycle ride with veterans, friends, and family riding across the United States to accomplish their mission:
- to promote healing among all veterans and their families and friends;
- to call for an accounting of all Prisoners of War and those Missing in Action (POW/MIA);
- to honor the memory of those Killed in Action (KIA) from all Wars; and
- to support our military personnel all over the world.
Run For The Wall begins on May 16 in Ontario, CA, and culminates with participation in Rolling Thunder’s “Ride For Freedom” in Washington, DC on May 27. Riders also lay a wreath on May 26 at the Tomb of the Unknowns in Arlington National Cemetery.
