Meet the Mission Ambassadors
Casey Smith
I am honored and excited to be a new member of the 50 Mile Tribe. Operation Freedom Path will be my first 50 Mile March. I've been following this organization for the last couple of years and all of the amazing things they are doing for Veterans and for our Community. From funding mental health programs and providing funds for disaster & tragedy relief to designing & building a brand new Veteran housing & community engagement center, this organization is making real differences in our community every day. I've felt compelled to get involved for awhile, and I'm excited to help drive this mission forward. Fitness, Health, and Wellness are passions of mine. I've been encouraged to join by several friends and neighbors who see me regularly rucking the hills of Beaver Lake. I'm not stranger to physical challenges, as some of you know. But, I'll need your help with this one! 50 miles will test me physically and mentally, but with your help, I know I'll be able to proudly honor and serve those who have sacrificed so much while contributing $$$ towards our annual $1,000,000 goal. Please consider supporting me and the 50 Mile
March!!!!

I'm participating in the 50 Mile March again this year, it seems that doing hard things becomes a little easier when you see the results of your efforts in the lives of others. Donations towards my goal of $2500 are greatly appreciated.
