The Missouri Veterans Home in Warrensburg hosts its 25th annual event, a community gathering focused on enhancing the lives of its resident veterans. This tradition draws participants from West Central Missouri and Eastern Kansas, supporting those who have served.
The USATF certified course offers 5K or 10K options with professional timing. It is also a family-friendly event for walkers. A tradition sees medals presented to top finishers by the veterans themselves, an exchange that helps fund programs to improve the quality of life for residents, including bingo, happy hours, live music, special meals, and outings.
