Welcome to Mississippi's Run for the Fallen!
Thursday, July 17, 2008 at 04:37PM Help us reach our goal! Download a flier here!
Since 2008 Americans have been organizing runs on behalf of our fallen soldiers. Mississippi is now included in the states that organize the runs. On August 20th we will gather to show our support for all of our fallen service men and women as well as show support for those that are still deployed. Come join us for a day of recognition and remembrance. There is absolutely no cost for participating and any funds generated from the event will be given graciously to organizations that help families and soldiers that have been affected by a death or injury.
No matter if you are a runner, walker, youth, adult, or senior, we ask that you come show our support. Help us to spread the word and make Mississippi's Run for the Fallen a highly successful event. This one mile course will be set up at Brandon High School in Brandon, Mississippi on August 20th, 2011. Adults can choose to run 1, 2, or three miles. The kids run will be one mile. Make sure you register online to be a part of the event!
