The Summit Project honoring Maine's fallen.

[ltljohn]

The Summit Project Is a unique way to honor the fallen veterans from Maine. An engraved stone is carried by a volunteer through a physical challenge.

 

From the website.:

The Summit Project is a Living Memorial each volunteer trekker must (1) learn all they can about our fallen; (2) carry the stone through a physical challenge; and (3) compose a post-event reflection letter addressed to the family of the fallen. Already, TSP stories and stones have been shared on Katahdin, Cadillac, Kilimanjaro, Everest, Denali and been carried through parades, marathons and marches all across Maine. Our heroes’ memories remain alive. The Summit Project is a Living Memorial because we live by our motto: We carry their stone for a hike, we carry their story for a lifetime.
