(SMYRNA, TN)  Make MEMORIAL DAY more special this year, join the CARRY THE LOAD Relay Team at 3:45PM Friday afternoon (May 21, 2021) at Big Lots in Smyrna (299 N. Lowry St.) and walk approximately 4-miles with them. It's FREE and a way to say THANK YOU to our current and past veterans.

Carry The Load started in 2011 as a grassroots effort by two Veteran U.S. Navy SEALs who felt like the nation had forgotten the meaning of Memorial Day. Now, Carry The Load has turned into a worldwide movement to honor our nation’s heroes and make Memorial Day matter again.

Carry The Load inspires people to actively participate in its Memorial May events to restore the true meaning of Memorial Day. Upon registering, you can participate by hosting a Carry It Anywhere experience, organizing a youth Carry The Flag activity, walking in the National Relay, attending a City Rally, fundraising for our nation’s heroes, and taking part virtually throughout the 32-day event.
