Silkie Hike Brings Awareness of Veteran Suicides

Approximately 85 military members and veterans hiked around Key West to bring attention to veteran suicides . They began at Higgs Beach and made stops at famous local landmarks including the Southernmost Buoy, Bayview Park (Vietnam Memorial), Conch Republic, Mallory Square, CGC Ingham Museum, Rick’s, Pocket Park, White St. Pier, and ended at the pavilions next to Salute on the Beach. The Irreverent Warriors hike not only brought veterans together, but also educated curious onlookers about the estimated 22 veteran suicides a day. The hike was extremely successful and will be back in 2020. If anyone would like to donate to Irreverent Warriors, please visit www.IrreverentWarriors.com
