We will have a military escort for the 210 Division, with the Commanders of both the VFW, American Legion and the Commandant of the Marine Corps League riding in the vehicle, they will take us through town and to the bypass, from there we will ride to Sylva for a stop there, then on to the Waynesville American Legion post for a stop there. We will then continue on to Maggie Valley to the "Wheels Through Time" museum. Spend some time touring the museum, then return through Sylva with another stop. The ride will end at the American Legion Post 108 here in Franklin with a free BBQ for the participants and sponsors.
There are no requirements to participate, other than love of country and respect for those that have and are still serving our country. All vehicles are welcome-it doesn't have to be a motorcycle. Cars, minivans, pickup trucks are all welcome. If you know of any corporate sponsors that would like to participate, we have 3 corporate levels $100, $250, and $500. Sponsors will be honored on the t-shirts that will be given to the first 100 people that register.
There are no differences between the three corporate levels. All corporate sponsored money goes directly to the memorial.
