New this year we will be having two Veteran related groups to support VALOR Clinic Foundation and Victory House. VALOR Clinic Foundation : We will be collecting non-perishables for their veteran food bank . After the race as you wait for awards and have a snack you can help create bags of necessities for local homeless veterans.
In addition to helping VCF, you will also have the opportunity to pain rocks for Victory House in Bethlehem, while you wait for the awards ceremony. They have a garden/sanctuary for their residents (men, many of which are veterans who are working to overcome addiction). You can paint a patriotic themed rock or something motivational. All art supplies and rocks will be donated by Kicker's Landscaping. More information about these opportunities will be sent via email closer to race day.
