FFW is August 8, 2026 and is made up of a 5K timed run and a 1-mile tribute walk. The event will be held at the Veterans Serving Veterans (VSV) Community Park located at 3740 S. 41 Rd. in Cadillac, MI.
Our mission at 22 2 None is to stop the inconceivable number of veterans who take their own lives by reaching out, searching for, and supporting those who have sacrificed themselves both physically and mentally for this country, and now fight a daily inner battle with demons no one can see. For more information about our organization and programs visit the 22 2 None website.
VSV is a Cadillac, Michigan nonprofit that honors and serves those who have served and protected at home and abroad. For more information about this organization and their mission visit the VSV website.
