We will ride the mountains and valleys of Dauphin, Schuylkill, and Lebanon counties ending at Memorial Lake on the Fort Indiantown Gap Military Reservation where there will be light food, prize drawings and some representatives from the PA National Guard to say thank you to all the supporters.

Classic cars, military vehicles, and sports cars are welcome to participate with us in the ride.

Pre-Registration is encouraged, but not required. By pre-registering, you enable us to better anticipate the food, traffic control and other needs.

Operation SOS has been able to make life better for hundreds of our PA National Guard and Reserve troops deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan. Tthis is our primary funding vehicle for the project. Even if you cannot participate with us on August 14, please consider making donation to the cause. These citizen soldiers leave their jobs, families and friends when called on, to put themselves in harms way. The least the rest of us can do is make sure that they know we have not forgotten and appreciate them in some tangible way. ALL funds donated and raised go directly to supporting these troops. The costs of organizing the event are covered by the Guardian Knights.

Below is a list of some of the items that we are receiving requests for. While monetary donations are easiest to handle, we appreciate any donations that can be used to fill our boxes. We will continue to update the list as we receive requests.
