Multi-State HOTH Mission
Hero’s Rock
29 August 2017
Pittsburgh, PA
The Patriot Guard Riders have been invited to Escort then Stand In Honor for the Presentation by Hero’s Rock Honoring Spc. Alan Dikcis US Army who was killed in Afghanistan March 5, 2010.
Hero’s Rock is a non-profit organization that builds tribute Patriotic Pony Rocking Horses for the children of our Fallen Heroes.
This is the beginning of a 16 state journey across the East Coast to deliver these special rocking horses. Last years they crossed 21 states for over 10,060 miles, delivering 18 Patriotic Pony Rocking Horses. They were blessed to enjoy the company of many different divisions of Patriot Guard Riders along that journey and hope to continue receiving our support this year.
