Third Annual Veteran Suicide Awareness Run/Walk - Umatilla Marina
The Third Annual Veteran Suicide Awareness Run/Walk is a community event focused on raising awareness about veteran suicide and supporting local veterans and their families. The event offers multiple distances and routes through the scenic area around Umatilla Marina.
Participants can choose from these distances:
- 1 mile Fun Run/Walk
- 5K route
- 10K route
On-site registration is available on the day of the event and early registration is encouraged to secure a spot. Water stations and light refreshments are provided along the routes and at the finish area. Top finishers in each distance receive ribbons, and every participant receives a custom dog tag as a symbol of honor and remembrance.
The event also seeks volunteers for setup, registration, and course support, and includes opportunities for sponsorship to support its mission. The purpose of the run/walk is to foster community support, raise funds for veterans in need, and address mental health challenges affecting veterans.
The event is organized with community involvement and local support, and routes are set in the natural surroundings of the Umatilla Marina area. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
