The Mountain Man Memorial March is a challenging marathon length march or run through the scenic Smoky Mountains and Gatlinburg Tennessee, what began as a way to honor one of our fallen, UT alum 1st Lt. Frank Walkup, has quickly expanded into a tribute which honors all our fallen American heroes and has become the largest Gold Star Mother recognition ceremony in the southeast.

The March has two distances, the full 26.2 mile distance and the 13.1 mile 1/2 distance.

City of Gatlinburg declares 20-21 April 2012

"Gold Star Family and Mountain Man Memorial March Recognition Weekend"

 

Gatlinburg- Mayor Mike Werner and the City Council of Gatlinburg presented CPT Mark Farley, University of Tennessee Air Force ROTC and Lee Dalton, University of Tennessee Army ROTC, with a proclamation declaring 20-21 April 2012 as "Gold Star Family and Mountain Man Memorial March Recognition Weekend."  The Mountain Man Memorial March began in 2008 as a way to honor UT ROTC Alumnus 1LT Frank B. Walkup, IV who was killed in action in Iraq in 2007.  Since its inception the event has grown to honor not only 1LT Walkup and his family but all fallen Service Members and their Families.

The Army and Air Force ROTC Departments would like to express their gratitude to Mayor Werner and the City Council for bestowing this honor upon the Mountain Man Memorial March and recognizing and honoring U.S. Service Members and their Families.  We would also like to thank George Hawkins and Darrell Manis of the Gatlinburg Special Events Office for their assistance over the past 5 years in making this event possible.
