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.
