GORUCK Event Schedule 2014-2015

GORUCK has announced events for 2015 through the Fall, and we have compiled a full list of events in our region. We are focusing on South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia, Virginia, and Washington DC.

The Highlights

GORUCK capstone events (now called Expeditions) are open to anyone, including non-GRTs. Our region has two capstones on schedule for 2015, and they’re both GORUCK Navigators. Navigator comes to Atlanta in April and Asheville in October. This is a great event, and it’s awesome that it is coming to our region twice next year. These are capped and will fill up quick, don’t wait.

GORUCK Fun Luvin’ Events are on schedule for 2015, and Scavenger is coming to Atlanta in January, 2015, and Charleston in February 2015! You won’t find any Good Livin’ at a Scavenger event, just a whole lot of fun. At $25, this one is a no-brainer.

GORUCK rolled out a line-up of special events in 2014 which proved to be highly successful, and our region is getting our fair share next year. Among the special events are the GORUCK Historical Society events, and we are lucky enough to have one on the calendar for 2015 already. The Mogadishu Mile Challenge/Light event will be held in Charlotte, NC in October 2015. This is a change from 2014 when the event was held in Wilmington. Don’t wait to a sign up for this one, it is sure to fill up quickly.

Another category of special events – holiday events – are also well represented in our region. Enjoy some Green ACRT and burpees on St. Patricks’s Day at an event in NC, GA, or VA. Earn the orange Halloween patch wearing a full costume in one of six cities. Celebrate New Years with some Good Livin’ and a Scavenger in Atlanta. Let your spouse tag along for some Valentines Day Good Livin’ in Virginia and Atlanta. Watch the fireworks at July 4th events in DC or GA. For a more somber and reverent experience, take part in a 9/11 Remembrance or a Veteran’s Day event. These are sure to be excellent experiences.

One type of event that appears to be new to the calendar in 2015 is the GORUCK Anniversary Events. We will have to wait and see what these will entail, but they will be held in both Raleigh, NC and Virginia Beach, VA.

Got an Heavy on your mind? You’ve got a few chances this year. There will be a St. Patrick’s Day Heavy in Savannah, and a Halloween Heavy in Atlanta. Push yourself a little further – Washington DC will be hosting a HCL (Heavy, Challenge, Light) both for 9/11 Remembrance and 4th of July.

And of course we couldn’t forget team SPEARHEAD’s Red, Light, & Blue. There are two Red, Light, & Blue events on the calendar so far for 2015 – one in Greenville, SC and one in Charlotte, NC. Sign up today for Red, Light, & Blue 002 in Greenville, it is sure to be the best event you do all year and it’s for a great cause!
