Warrier Expeditionconsists of three different programs – hike, bike and paddle
The program provides for Contemplation: During their
expedition, veterans have the opportunity to decompress from their military
service and come to terms with their wartime experiences; Camaraderie: Veterans experience their
journey with the camaraderie of other veterans who understand the challenges of
transitioning from military service to civilian life; and Interaction with
community supporters which facilitates a veteran’s reintegration into society,
restores their faith in humanity and builds a network of life-long friendships
and relationships.
The Warrior Bike Program traverses the 3,700-mile Great
American Rail-Trail that crosses 12 states between Washington, D.C. and
Washington State and takes places during the months of May until August. The route consists of 150+ host trails and is
over 55% completed
This year there are six veterans taking part in the Expedition
Bike, and one is from Nebraska. The Expedition
riders are expected to arrive in Norfolk NE on July 3rd. They will take part in the 250-year anniversary
Celebration and are expected to remain in Norfolk thru July 4 for the FreedomFest.
