What It's All About

What started with just a few good men has grown into a powerful community mission. The Walk 22 Miles for 22 is a 22-mile walk to raise awareness for Veterans and First Responders' mental health and suicide prevention.

In 2025, we were out there with 200 walkers β€” let’s smash that number in 2026 and show our support in full force!


What to Expect

βœ… Walk any distance β€” 1 mile or the full 22, every step counts
βœ… Group-paced walk with police escort
βœ… Water stations every 2 miles (bring extra snacks & water too!)
βœ… Shuttle vehicles available if you need to take a break or ride back
βœ… Mobile DJ All Day! We’re thrilled to welcome back DJ Wicked In10tionz to keep the energy high with music throughout the entire walk!
βœ… Free to walk – to support Volusia County First Responders & Veterans
