From the Organizer
Join us this July for the Run to Remember 5K, a meaningful run and walk held in honor of our nation’s Veterans.
This event is more than a race. It is a chance to come together as a community to remember those who served, honor their sacrifice, and raise awareness of Missouri’s National Veterans Memorial. Every step taken helps ensure more Veterans know about our Memorial and feel welcome to visit, reflect, and connect.
Whether you run, jog, or walk, the Run to Remember 5K is open to all ages and fitness levels. Participants are encouraged to run in honor or in memory of a Veteran who has touched their life.
Proceeds from the event support the mission of Missouri’s National Veterans Memorial, helping us remain a place of honor, remembrance, and education for generations to come.
Come run with purpose. Come run with gratitude.
Join us for the Run to Remember 5K.
