The Georgia Army National Guard Recruiting & Retention Team will be attending this community engagement event with static displays of military vehicles. 

 

The awesome group from the Shepherd’s Men will be participating this year in their gear!

 

Plans are underway to simulcast the 5K with GAARNG deployed soldiers from the Southwest Border in Texas to run the Veterans Memorial 5K at the same time as the race in Marietta! This will be a LIVE FEED available for viewing on screens that will be set up in the Marietta Square! 

 

If you participated in the Live Feed from Afghanistan during the 2019 Veterans Memorial 5K, we hope you can join us for this in-person event!
