Team Red, White, and Blue relays Old Glory.
Team Red, White, and Blue is relaying Old Glory across the U.S.A. to call attention to the needs of veterans. I ran into them (almost literally) while taking pictures in Colorado.
From their web site: “The Old Glory Coast to Coast Relay is an Olympic torch style relay of approximately 3800 miles from the VA hospital in San Francisco to Bethesda Naval Hospital in suburban Washington, DC. We will be carrying an American flag the entire distance over the course of sixty days beginning September 11 and ending November 11, 2014. The flag will be carried from each day’s starting point to a point approximately 65 miles east as depicted under The Course. Our goal is to raise awareness of and funds for our veterans through Team RWB.”
