A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our first annual Silkie Hike! This event was a huge success, thanks to the incredible spirit and camaraderie of all who participated. Spending the afternoon together, surrounded by fellow veterans, was a powerful reminder of the healing and strength that comes from community. These connections are what make days like this truly unforgettable.
We owe a special shout-out to @pourbrospeoria and @slowhandbbq for keeping us fueled with great food, refreshing drinks, and a perfect spot to drop our packs at the end of the hike. A heartfelt thank you as well to all our sponsors for their generosity—it’s the support of our community here in Peoria that makes events like these possible.
We couldn’t be more grateful for everyone who helped make this day one for the books. Here’s to many more hikes, connections, and memories to come!
