The Irreverent Warriors organization will be hosting a group hike in September starting at the Laura Blvd Commuter Lot in Norwich.
The Irreverent Warriors Silkies Hike is an event that brings people together through humor and physical activity. The program is only open to veterans or those actively serving in the military. The hike will last between 4-10 miles and will have frequent stops for food, beverages, and interactions with fellow participants. Only domesticated service animals will be permitted to join the group during the event, and no open containers are allowed on the hike.
The Irreverent Warriors is an organization that promotes positive mental health for those in the military by coordinating events throughout the United States. The Silkies Hikes have been held in cities like Chicago, Milwaukee, and Harpers Ferry. The group aims to lower veteran suicide rates by using humor and camaraderie to create healthy connections. The organization's founder is Donny O'Malley, and the current CEO is Cindy McNally.
The group hike will be held on Saturday, September 17 from 7:00 am to 5:00 pm. Tickets will cost $5 per person, though free admission is available for veterans who cannot pay. Ruck tags can be purchased for $10, and customized T-Shirts will cost $25. Those who hold outdoor activities for groups like this may use flyer printing to spread awareness for their events.Get a Free Quote for T-Shirts
