Veterans Day 5K Walk/Run

Veterans Day 5K Walk/Run

JOIN US for the Veterans' Day 5k on Saturday, November 7, 2026, 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 this 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.
