HomeStrong USA, through its "Homestrong Heroes Program," provides specially adapted homes for injured combat veterans. Homestrong has invited the Patriot Guard Riders to take part in their latest event on Saturday, November 8, when the organization will be giving a piece of the American Dream, a specially adapted, mortgage-free home to a deserving active duty or military veteran and his or her family.
At this time the recipient only knows that he/she is a finalist, and will be informed he/she will be getting a home at the November 8 ceremony.
The PGR has been invited to take part in this joyous event. We have been asked to stand a Flag Line for the veteran and family, to participate in presenting the colors, to line the street with motorcycles and to show our appreciation for this hero's service and sacrifice.
The home location is in
Lake Elsinore, and the ceremony will commence from 11am to 1pm.
NOTE: This mission posting is to facilitate your voluntary participation in honoring this Military Veteran. For those interested, and all are welcome, please see the time table below.
