 Hero in the Making for 4 Wheel To Heal ::: #HEROINTHEMAKING2023

Draw your Hero and inspire all to be Heroes! Design Trail Hero’s 2023 T-shirt and help our friends at 4 Wheel to Heal raise money for their Veteran programs.

MY HERO
This year, Trail Hero has partnered with Yukon Gear and Axle, Icon Vehicle Dynamics, and Dynatrac to support our good friends at 4 Wheel To Heal. We are proud to highlight 4 Wheel To Heal as our non-profit this year and the many efforts their staff and programs do for our wounded and disabled veterans. To raise funds and bring awareness to 4 Wheel To Heal, this year’s Trail Hero t-shirt design will be designed by someone we don’t know. Someone who has a hero in their lives that we’ve never met.

We want to involve our communities and showcase the talent and creativity of our youth and their heroes. We are asking children ages 4-15 to design this year’s official Trail Hero Tee! Shirts will be available for sale online at the Trail Hero 2023 event this October. All proceeds from the shirt sale will go to 4 Wheel to Heal to support their mission in providing our warriors the chance to experience the outdoors through off-road therapy and events.

What does a Hero mean, look, act like to you? Find a crayon, a colored pencil or a marker and show us what it takes to be a Hero. The shirt tagline is, “Hero in the Making”.
