Mayor’s Week of Valor

Mayor Greg Fischer and the Veterans Community Alliance of Louisville (VCAL) are proud to announce the ninth annual Mayor’s Week of Valor — a series of events to honor and celebrate the contributions and sacrifices of active-duty military, veterans, and their families.

Coinciding with Veterans Day, the 2022 Week of Valor will feature educational, patriotic, community and civic events from Nov. 1 through Nov.

12.

Events include a Team Red, White & Blue Casual Ruck on Nov. 1, a University of Louisville Football Salute to Service Game on Nov. 5, and a RSVP Veterans Health Fair on Nov. 10. An early kickoff to the Week of Valor will take place on Oct. 22 with the KDVA 5K Run, Walk and Stroll.

Additionally, on Saturday, Nov. 5, the annual Veterans Day Parade will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Southeast Christian Church campus, 920 Blankenbaker Pkwy. More details can be found at https://www.kyvetparade.com.
