Dallas Memorial March 2024

Join our Team!

In 2011, Carry The Load began as a 20-hour, 11-minute Memorial March on Memorial Day around White Rock Lake in Dallas. It started as a grassroots effort by two Veteran U.S. Navy SEALs Stephen Holley and Clint Bruce who felt like the nation had forgotten the meaning of Memorial Day. More than a decade later, Carry The Load has turned into a worldwide movement to honor our nation’s heroes and make Memorial Day matter again.
 

The Dallas Memorial March continues to be Carry The Load’s flagship event. It is a two-day embodiment of the values Carry The Load hopes to further — a celebration of heroes, remembrance of the fallen, and education in respectful observance. The Dallas Memorial March is the culmination of Memorial May fundraising to benefit our Continuum of Care partners.

​

We are excited that Carry the Load selected Eagle Oak Retreat as one of their nonprofit partners this year. To date, Carry The Load helped raise over $38M in conjunction with Military & First Responder charities across the United States.  Your participation and donation helps Eagle Oak Retreat achieve our mission to provide combat veterans and first responders with the skills necessary to overcome traumatic stress experienced as a result of their service to our country.

​

Join an Eagle Oak Retreat team or create your own! Funds that you raise will "roll up" to the team total, and you can earn your official Eagle Oak Carry the Load shirt by raising $50 or more! 100% of proceeds will go to Eagle Oak if you’re registered under our page!
