Join Carry The Load in Fort Worth, TX - Honoring the Sacrifices of our Nation's Heroes in a 4 mile-long Walk & Rally About this Event Carry The Load is a 501(c)3 organization co-founded by two Navy SEAL veterans who wanted to restore the true meaning of Memorial Day. Our mission has since broadened to include more than just our military heroes and veterans, but also first responders and their families. As a lead up to our Memorial Day march in Dallas, Carry The Load now also has 3 routes followed by walkers and cyclists across the country, handing off the American flag every five miles. Join the West Coast Route of the Carry The Load National Relay Team as they walk through Fort Worth, Texas. Starting at 9:45 AM, join in for an approximately 4-mile walk through Fort Worth as they finish the final days of the 4,600 mile trek from Seattle to Dallas! _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SCHEDULE: 9:45 AM - Meet at Amon G.
