It is great to be here with all of you and we really appreciate your help. If I could ask everyone to make and extra special effort this week to visit www.firstgiving.org/gratefulpatriot1 and purchase a flag it would be greatly appreciated. I have a meeting with a flag company and I can really drive down the price and maybe get the flags donated if I can show big numbers of individuals supporting the flag. You can also find the donation site on the run web site and simply click on fly the flag under the events button.

Thanks everyone for all your help

Mike

Thanks guys for all the suggestions and help. We have determined the tag line to be When a Soldier Falls, We Thunder it seem to best encompass what we are trying to convey which really is that we will never forget what these heroes have done in defense of our freedom. It also sends a clear message to those who oppose us that when you harm one of our own we pull together as one.

Very busy day today I may be able to put out very good news concerning Harley Davidson Corp. support of this effort even in light of their current financial condition. Keep you fingers crossed this is a battle I have been fighting for some time now and all your support has really made a difference.

Mike aka The Grateful Patriot

from The Honor Run news blog, Saturday, January 24, 2009:

OAKLEY SUPPORT FOR THE HONOR RUN

"We are pleased to announce that, due to the overwhelming interest in the Honor Run, we have changed the end point of the ride to the Oakley Corporation's world headquarters in Foothill Ranch, California. Oakley was kind enough to allow us to use their parking lots to stage a celebration that is shaping up to be second to none."

I'll check with my company, they may do a match to the 501 charity.

If so, good. If not, I'll still pitch in a few bucks and see if I can link up on Days 4-6.

thx for your support, Phil! : )

i've recently visited at length via phone with both Dave Barr and with Mike Kerr (aka the Grateful Patriot, the man "driving" the Honor Run) and they are fully committed to making this ride a successful, righteous, meaningful tribute to our nation's military heroes (and their families), particularly those who have paid the ultimate price protecting yours and my freedoms and liberties.

on behalf of Dave and Mike and everyone else involved in the Honor Run, thank you for your support.

best regards,
Ferris

thank you Fireman Jim and Frank and all the other BadWeB'ers who've donated so generously to the Honor Run's "Fly the Flag" fund so far - good job! : )
