HELP US BRING DANA BOWMAN TO LAWTON!
This year, we're also raising $5,000 to bring Dana Bowman, retired Army Golden Knight, double-amputee veteran, and motivational speaker, to our closing ceremony!
Our goal is to have Dana parachute into the event and share his incredible story of courage, resilience, and determination.
Visit our Sponsor the Knight fundraiser on the homepage! Businesses can showcase their logos, and families can honor loved ones through our Honor & Remembrance Photo Wall. Every $5 helps bring us closer to making this happen!
Dana's appearance and parachute landing are pending fundraising, weather, and final aviation and safety approvals. Donations are NOT required to walk or attend.
THIS EVENT IS OPEN TO EVERYONE!
Whether you walk for an hour, stop by to encourage our participants, or attend Saturday's closing ceremony, your presence matters.
Let's show our veterans that Lawton/Fort Sill remembers, appreciates, and stands behind them!
