What It's All About
What started with just a few good men has grown into a powerful community mission. The Walk 22 Miles for 22 is a 22-mile walk to raise awareness for Veterans and First Responders' mental health and suicide prevention.
In 2024, we were just shy of 200 walkers — let’s smash that number in 2025 and show our support in full force!
What to Expect
✅ Walk any distance — 1 mile or the full 22, every step counts
✅ Group-paced walk with police escort
✅ Water stations every 2 miles (bring extra snacks & water too!)
✅ Shuttle vehicles available if you need to take a break or ride back
✅ Mobile DJ All Day! We’re thrilled to welcome back DJ Ali from Wicked In10tionz to keep the energy high with music throughout the entire walk!
✅ Free to walk – Donations welcome to support Volusia County First Responders & Veterans
