FAQ:
What Is the Freedom Honor Flight?
The Freedom Honor Flight is a nonprofit organization based in Western Wisconsin that honors our veterans by flying them to Washington, D.C. to visit the memorials built in their honor. It’s a powerful and emotional experience provided at no cost to the veterans — made possible through local support and donations like yours and through events like this.
🎒 What Is Rucking?
Rucking is simply walking with a weighted backpack (a "ruck"). It’s used in military training and has become a popular way to combine fitness with purpose. For this event:
• You can use as much or as little weight as you’d like.
• No ruck? No problem! A standard backpack or weighted vest works great.
• This is not a competition — it’s about the effort and the cause.
Who is Welcome? – EVERYONE! Friends, Family, Grandparents, Kiddos (10 and under are free) etc…
