Join us for this fourth annual event presented by Ameri-Tex Services….with some fun new updates to the race format and route! The 2019 Salute to Service will be featuring a 5K run and a short track mountain bike race! We will be hosted by the all-new Blackhawk Mountain Bike and Hiking trail in Whitehouse.

5K Run: This year features an all-new 5K course, starting and finishing at the all-new Blackhawk Creek Hike and Bike Trail in Whitehouse. A portion of the proceeds from the 5K will benefit the Ameri-Tex Never Forgotten Foundation. And thanks to our generous sponsor, Ameri-Tex Services, all kids 12 and under run the 5K for FREE!

Mountain Bike Race: This race will challenge riders to complete as many laps as they can on the ~2.5 mile Blackhawk trail in 45 minutes. A portion of the proceeds from the mountain bike race will benefit the North East Texas Composite NICA Mountain Bike Team.
