Fifth annual Patriots Run scheduled

Posted

It's time to hop on a motorcycle and ride in support of veterans.

The fifth annual All Patriots Run will take place Sunday with registration beginning at 10:30 a.m. at the Arlington Veterans Club. The event is sponsored by the Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association Chapter 16-3.

"We are an association and everything we get goes to veterans," Lawrence Anthony said. "We donate things to the Veterans Administration and occasionally we help a vet out if they need something, but we try not to do too much with individuals." 

Anthony said the organization is based out of Hooper.

Bikers will drive around a 90-mile route during the poker run. Anthony said they stop mostly at bars but will stop at Sweet and Saucy. The run will take bikers through Arlington, Nickerson, Cedar Bluffs, Scribner, Hooper and back to Arlington.  

"We go to veteran owned or pro-military stops along the way," he said.

The proceeds benefit hungry and homeless Nebraska veterans.
