The rain would not stop and neither would over 3,000 participants who helped make Carry the Load – Dallas possible. At 4:00 PM, participants began Carrying the Load at Reverchon Park to show their support for those who gave so much to keep us safe.

The event held during the Memorial Day weekend highlights the sacrifice made by those who have served, from members of the Armed Forces to First Responders. The sacrifices that are made on a daily basis by those who put their lives on the line for people they will never know truly define a hero. Today we walk to honor and remember true heroes.
