Challenge yourself and support your local military members. Proceeds go to the Army ROTC Islander Battalion at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi.
This event is open to the public and coincides with Homecoming Week - we extend a special welcome to alumni as we celebrate the 100th anniversary of ROTC and the 10th anniversary of the Islander Battalion.
Join us for...
