Overland 4 Heroes
Our Story
After two years of planning and setbacks, veteran Aaron Tucker and his wife, Christy, and two of their three children, James and Tanner, successfully completed their “Overlanding 4 Heroes” journey this summer in an effort to raise awareness and support for veterans.
Their mission involved ten days on the road, overlanding to remote places, tackling nine off-road trails 3-7 hours long each, overcoming obstacles and failures, managing unpredictable weather and documenting great successes. Their “why” behind taking this trip as a family was to tackle the challenging trails and remote camping as a representation of the challenging journey in a veteran’s life.
They were able to raise $2,600 in the name of this mission, and did a dedication to a Purple Hart recipient.
