THE STORY:
The Team Red White and Blue mission is one that is near and dear to my heart. If you know me then you are aware that I have spent a couple years of my life deployed to with some of the country's greatest citizens, those who have CHOSEN to serve. It is because of these folks that I know what sacrifice is and that I now want to give back to the Veterans of this great country. The Old Glory Relay embodies so much that is great about America. Please take the time to read about the Old Glory Relay below. Rebecca and I will be running a leg (length yet to be determined) on 9 OCT in Southern NM. There are so many great causes to give to out there, please consider donating to this one. Thanks! God Bless America and God Bless our TROOPS!

At sunrise on September 11th, Old Glory will by unfurled on the Microsoft Campus in Redmond, Washington for an inspiring experience connecting Eagles, Patriots and Communities across our great Nation. Throughout this third iteration of “America’s Relay” 1,000s of hands will help transport Old Glory the 4,216 miles of this year’s completely redesigned course. Each of the hands that will touch this year’s Old Glory will have their own story of why they are Connected to the symbol of our Nation. These stories woven together will impact communities on an off the course with positive enrichment through action. Team Red, White and Blue’s mission is to enrich the lives of American Veterans through physical and social activities within their communities. After 62-days on the course, the Old Glory Relay will conclude in Tampa on Veteran’s Day.
This mission is driven by our Eagle Ethos of PASSION, PEOPLE, POSITIVITY, COMMUNITY, CAMARADERIE and COMMITMENT. The Relay will be led by Team Red, White and Blue’s unique style of leadership blending EMPATHETIC & AUTHENTIC actions, GENUINE & LOYAL relationships, and EFFECTIVE communication. The Connections made through the Old Glory Relay our supported by our presenting sponsor Microsoft’s desire to empower Veterans of our Nation with the tools for a successful career in the IT industry. Join the experience and tell us how you are CONNECTED with Old Glory.
