Welcome to the 2nd annual Hero Hill Climb!
This is a great event to honor our fallen veterans and bring awareness to the good men & women serving in our military.
Walk, run or mountain bike...all ages...
Starting in front of Camp Merrill Army Ranger Base, you will be given a half-sheet card with the name of a fallen service member (Hero). Your mission is to carry your Hero up the gravel road to the top of the hill to honor their sacrifice. When you get to the top, there will be a large Hero board, an American flag, and a cast iron freedom bell. You will pin your Hero Card onto the Hero Board, ring the bell in their honor, and return back down the gravel road. The scenery is amazing, and you get to walk with the 5th Ranger Army Training Battalion! Each participant will also receive a special event Challenge Coin that you can pay forward or keep.
Afterwards, join the after-party at "The Overhang", Camp Merrill's on-base bar & grille for great food & beverages, raffle giveaways, and live music. Comfy event t-shirts and challenge coins are available on-site and online.
If you want to paticipate and are unsure of your physical fitness to walk up the mountain, we have "special options" for you (Spec Ops). We'll have UTV/SxS vehicles to transport you up and down the mountain, so you can complete your mission safely. We even have a "virtual category" for those who want to participate but cannot attend in-person.
Partnering with the US Mountain Ranger Association (USMRA), the proceeds from this event will benefit both the USMRA as well as Mission22. Your contribution deploys critical support to our Heroes, by fostering community, financial assistance, and provides long-term wellness programs to prevent veteran suicide. You make an impact!
Help us spread the word by sharing with your friends, participating in the event, and gathering a team. Our Heroes deserve our best!
** We also need sponsors and volunteers! If you have a business or an organization that we can promote, your sponsorship will be accepted as a 501(c)3 contribution. Let's find creative ways to benefit our heroes, and promote you at the same time. Please contact Stephen at the "Race Contact" below.
