The most memorable walk of the year!
Join us as we commemorate the victims of 9/11
The March to the Arch is a 21-mile memorial walk that begins in West County and concludes at the base of the Gateway Arch. The walk begins at 9:11 am on the day of September 11th.
The starting point will be at Mike Duffy’s at 141 and Clayton Road. If you do not want to walk the entire way, you are more than welcome to join in at any point along the way with the group. We would like to finish together.
There is no cost to participate in this walk. It is simply a walk to celebrate the freedom of America and all those who have died for it. We hope you bring your American flag and join us this year in our trek to the Gateway Arch.
