LONG BEACH, NY -   2024 NEW YEAR'S EVE  WALK OR RUCK

Join Travis Manion Foundation and local Spartans as we close out the year with our annual veteran community walk/ruck—a powerful symbol of camaraderie and unity among veterans, their families, and community members.

This 4-mile round-trip can be adjusted to fit your individual pace or distance. This year, we’re rucking for a mission: bringing nonperishable food items in our rucksacks to donate to a local veteran food pantry. Together, we aim to support those in need while showing solidarity as one.

Ideas for pantry items are:

  • canned goods

  • rice

  • pasta

  • nut butters/nuts

  • crackers

  • coffee/tea bags

 

Let’s end the year with purpose, gratitude, and connection, and welcome the New Year with hope for a prosperous future. All are welcome to be part of this meaningful tradition!

 

This project will honor the life and legacy of TSgt. Dashan J. Briggs, USAF.
