    The “Boots on The Ground” race consists of a 5k family-oriented, pet-friendly, fun walk or run, as well as a more demanding 10k run (twice around the 5k course) starting at 9:00 AM with an Honor Guard Salute. Hosted in incorporation by both Lt. Charles A. Meyer, American Legion Post 86, Newton, NJ, and Skylands Stadium, Augusta, NJ. The sports campus is perfectly suited for the race in that it is flat. The race route is primarily asphalt with some gravel or sand areas. Especially inside of the baseball field near the warning track.

    Lt. Charles A. Meyer, American Legion Post 86, a community-oriented post, serves veterans and their families by directly supporting local homeless veteran organizations, the Boy Scouts of America, local student academic grants, and donations to local first responders.

    Skylands Stadium, the home of the Sussex County Miners professional baseball team, is located in the heart of rural Sussex County in Augusta, New Jersey. The stadium and surrounding facilities have been recently renovated, offering exciting sporting events, tradeshows, and fun, affordable family entertainment all year round. Amenities include:

    • Upgraded 4,200-seat stadium

    • 3 concessions stations

    • Spacious 20-acre parking lot is suitable for outdoor events such as car shows and festivals

    The event aims to raise awareness and support for our veterans. Both Lt. Charles A. Meyer, American Legion Post 86, and Skylands Stadium believe veterans transitioning back to civilian life appreciate and deserve the support of a welcoming community. Join us to show them we welcome and support them. Your entrance fees will go a long way in providing educational resources and economic support for our veterans.
