Lubbock Mayor Glen Robertson and the Wounded Warrior Amputee Softball Team will lead a bike ride from Family Power Sports to the Lubbock Veterans Memorial, and then on to the Blue Ribbon Rally. The bike ride begins at 8:30 a.m.
“It is very satisfying to know that the Lubbock area is a strong supporter of the military and honors active duty soldiers and Veterans,” said Dennis Wince, WWAST Executive Director and US Army Retired Veteran. “Working on this venue, we have seen first hand the strong pride that this area of Texas displays for military personnel and Wounded Warriors and it is very gratifying to see the recognition for those that have served our country.”
