Event summary
Join us on Saturday, April 26, 2025, in Spokane for the Heroes Walk 5K & Community Resource Fair, a vibrant event dedicated to empowering our veterans and their families. This uplifting occasion aims to raise awareness about veteran suicide while celebrating the resilience and sacrifices of our heroes. Participants can choose between two scenic walking paths: a 5K route and the Wounded Heroes Path, a 2K option that welcomes families with children on scooters, wagons, bikes, or strollers.
The day kicks off at 9 AM with registration and a community resource fair, followed by opening ceremonies at 10 AM. At 10:30 AM, the walk begins along the picturesque paths of Riverfront Park, culminating in a Victory Celebration at the finish line at 11:30 AM. This event not only honors our veterans but also provides essential resources for families navigating the transition from military to civilian life. Join us in creating a supportive community that values the sacrifices of our heroes while advocating for their well-being. Together, we can make a difference and choose life for those who have served.
