YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) – The first Veterans Suicide Prevention Bike Run was held Saturday, hosted by the Iron Order Motorcycle Club (MC) in conjunction with the American Star Foundation.
The event aims to recognize and honor veterans who have died by suicide and help them make better choices.
In partnership with Horseshoes for Heroes, the event was held at the Showcase Sports Bar. Bikers registered at 9:30 am and left at 11:00 am. The event meant something to the organizers.
Iron Order MC President Captn Ron said:
Deena Salter, an American Star Foundation volunteer, also said, “My father was in the Marine Corps. My brother was in the Marine Corps. My daughter’s father was in the Marine Corps. It’s very important.”
There were 5 places the bikers stopped during their ride. One of their stops was the American STARH Foundation in Foothills.
The riders made a final stop at Sage & Sand to celebrate their run.
If you want to celebrate with bikers, head to Sage & Sand. They will be there until 6pm.
