Here we are again, year 4 of OER.
For those of you unfamiliar, Operation Enduring Realness started as an annual SiS event where we all gather at Rausch Creek in the middle of Summer, and a major part of the event is based around donations to our front line Marines/Soldiers. It is meant to be our biggest most organized run of the year.
For those of you familiar, you know the drill.
OER IV will take place this year on Friday July 22nd through Sunday July 24th.
Donations for a carepackage to US forces overseas are a mandatory part of this run, no minimum cost, but you must have something, its all in the spirit of the event.
This year we are looking to have the newly built pavilion at Rausch reserved for the club to use, as well as other stuff (competition stuff potentially for the club)
Big barbecue of course.
Carepackage Suggestion List.
Everyone please donate 3-5 dollars with your care package addition, it is to cover flat rate shipping overseas as it is not cheap to send all this. this was a major complication last year we didnt account for. thank you!
This ALL will be collected the run weekend.
