Carry on is excited to return to Dallas Texas this Memorial Day weekend to carry the Texas Honor Log in honor of our nation's fallen military, law enforcement and fire / rescue. We invite you to join our team as an Honor Bearer or volunteer to assist with logistics.
Carry Details:
Date: Monday, May 27, 2024
Location: White Rock Lake
Address: 4100 W. Lawther Dr. Dallas, TX 75214
Honor Bearers and Volunteers MUST arrive at of before 0730.
Duration of the Carry: 0800 - 1400 (6 hours)
Honor Bearer: Honor Bearer's parallel the significance and duties of a pallbearer. Carrying the Honor Log requires six personnel to bear the weight of the 700-pound Texas cedar log. The duration of each carry is set by each team leader (positioned in front right). The typical carry is approximately 100 yards, the log is grounded, and the next relay takes position to carry. Each Honor Bearer should be physically capable of hoisting approximately 100 pounds across their shoulder using the provided strap system provided by Carry On. In addition, we require Honor Bearers to sign a waiver prior to participation on the day of the event.
Volunteer: In years past, volunteers have assisted the Honor Bearers in immeasurable ways. We truly appreciate the support of our volunteers that play a critical role to team safety, preparation and execution. These roles include but are not limited to assistance with carrying backpacks and / or wagons with towels, water / electrolytes, salt packs and basic first aid.
Please indicate when you sign up if you are interested in being an Honor Bearer or Volunteer. Each registrant will receive a Carry On T-Shirt, be sure to indicate your size when registering. Honor Bearer's and Volunteers will receive event specific information and updates soon after registration.
