Riders in the annual Run For The Wall will be making their way through Winslow and Holbrook on Thursday, May 14. The riders will arrive in Winslow at 9:45 a.m., taking Exit 252 from Interstate 40 east, and will parade through town on Second Street before entering back onto the freeway at the east end of town. They will arrive in Holbrook at 11:15 a.m., taking Exit 285, and traveling east on West Hopi Drive before turning onto Buffalo Street to greet students at the schools prior to arriving for lunch at American Legion Post 37 on East Iowa Street. Run For The Wall is an annual 10-day cross country motorcycle ride from the West Coast to the Vietnam War Memorial in Washington, D.C. The ride brings together hundreds of motorcyclists from around the world to promote healing among all veterans, as well as their families and friends, and to call for an accounting of all prisoners of war and those missing in action, to honor the memory of those killed in action from all wars, and to support military personnel all over the world. The public is encouraged to welcome the riders to the communities by coming out to greet the motorcyclists as they pass.
