Food, Fun, Family and Fellowship to support Michigan veterans and their families.
The Patriots Race

White Chapel's Patriots Race was held for over a decade while US troops actively participated in overseas conflicts. Held around the time of 9/11, or Patriots Day, the event brought communities together to raise money and awareness for Michigan veterans and their families. Each year, hundreds of participants and their cheering sections enjoyed delicious food from area restaurant and shops, great music, stirring presentations and a flat, fast American flag lined race course.
