🥾 Walk with Purpose: Carry The Load Meet-Up with Operation Get Out

Join Operation Get Out as we walk in honor, remembrance, and unity alongside Carry The Load. This meaningful Get Out offers a chance to reflect, connect, and support CTL's mission of restoring the true meaning of Memorial Day—honoring the service and sacrifice of our military, veterans, first responders, and their families.

This year, we walk with Jessica Hollis in our hearts. Her image is featured on the Carry The Load Memorial May bus mural, a moving tribute that travels the country to honor fallen heroes. As the relay team comes through Austin on the Northwest Route to Dallas, we invite you to join us in supporting Jessica’s memory and Operation Get Out's commitment to support the message and cause of Carry The Load.

Wear comfortable shoes, bring water, and most importantly—bring your heart. Whether you're walking for someone you love or to show your support, every step carries meaning.
