SAN ANTONIO, Tex. (September 20, 2022) — Memories of Honor is a registered national non-profit 501(c)(3) whose mission is to make every day Memorial Day. Memories of Honor (MOH), is excited to announce their inaugural Military City Miles & Memories (MCMM) honorary bike ride taking place on Saturday, October 22 in San Antonio, Texas’ beautiful Mission County Park. To accommodate all levels of cyclists, the memorial ride is offered in three different distances: 22 mile, 46 mile, and 62 mile courses. Each mile is dedicated in honor and memory of a fallen veteran, and every participant rides in honor and memory of a fallen service member. Each participant will carry one of our Fallen Hero Memorial bibs with the name of a fallen on it. Each participant will also receive a commemorative challenge coin & t-shirt.
Like other Memories of Honor sponsored events, MCMM is one great way for the general public to show appreciation and support for our military Veterans and Gold Star Families who have made the ultimate sacrifice. MOH works in partnership with other veteran’s service organizations and nonprofits to accomplish their mission, and is currently offering FREE exhibit space to those types of organizations at MCMM in the Rotunda Pavilion during the event. Veterans service organizations already scheduled to be present include: Gold Star Family Retreat, Warriors Heart, Pedal Guerrero, Muddee Waters: Scars & Stripes Coffee, Travis Manion Foundation, Sheep Dog Impact Assistance, Endeavors Veteran Wellness Center, and Earn-a-Bike. To request space, please contact Traci Uribe via email: traci@memoriesofhonor.org.
