Legion Riders
The American Legion Riders programs, organized by chapters, support Americanism and Children and Youth programs in virtually every state in the nation, and more are organizing each month. One of the fastest growing and most highly visible of the many programs offered by The American Legion, The American Legion Riders are a very diverse group, and so are the programs that they support.
What do American Legion Riders do?
The activities are far too many to mention in this space, but here are a few examples:
Legion Riders participate in the annual POW/MIA Rally held each Memorial weekend in Washington D.C. known as "Rolling Thunder" tribute ride.
Legion Riders sponsor or participate in local charity events in support of the sponsoring American Legion Post.
Legion Riders founded a national movement called “Patriot Guard” (www.patriotguard.org) that honors and protects the sanctity of military funerals and memorial services.
Legion Riders have formed special motorcycle Honor Guards and ceremonial teams highlighting the special bonds formed in military service and the motorcycling community.
American Legion Riders are a very dedicated group of Legion Family members.
Chapter #172 Riders provides Funeral and Burial Escorts; has rides and fundraisers to raise money for support of local Veteran's Relief, Needy Families and many, many others.
