Hope For Heroes | WALK-RUN-RIDE

First annual fundraising event for the Hero Scholarship Fund benefiting First Responders and Ministry Leaders in the East Texas region! 

Since Hope Road Counseling’s inception, we have had a passion to serve and pour into our hometown Heroes. The Hero Fund offers counseling services at a discounted rate making care more accessible and affordable. Hope Road desires to continue offering this benefit and would like you to join us!

If you have a love for the East Texas outdoors, obsess over bikes, running races and the status of community, then this is your event. We love being outdoors, flannel shirt oil-top backroad riding, and a good spring morning run. So why not mix them all together? For you racers, strategy is key - know your strengths and weaknesses. Fun is guaranteed! How about a prize for most selfies in your local favorite Hero’s uniform with a backdrop of gorgeous East Texas landscapes?

We want the community to show up for our Heroes! Remember this is not only a race but an event. Expect affordable entry fees, a rockin’ finish-line party next to Vendor Village and one heck of a hard course for you racers! 

• *First Responders: local law enforcement, fire-fighters, and paramedics.
