580 participants have signed up for annual motorcycle ride that raises funds for the children of fallen servicemembers.

Those wanting to participate in the 2015 American Legion Legacy Run have until Aug. 1 to register online. To register, click here.

All map books, patches and other registration material will be mailed to all pre-registered riders, passengers and supporters on or before Aug. 12. There is no guarantee that t-shirts, map books and patches will be available or delivered in time for the Run for those who register after Aug. 1.

The 2015 Legacy Run will leave Indianapolis Aug. 23 and arrive in the Baltimore area Aug. 26. The Legacy Run raises funds for The American Legion Legacy Scholarship Fund, which provides college scholarships for the children of U.S. servicemembers killed on active duty since 9/11.

In 2014, donations made on the floor of the 96th National Convention in Charlotte raised the Legacy Run total past $1 million for the first time; more than $435,000 was raised during the ride itself. Together, the nine Legacy Runs have raised more than $5 million for the fund, with each surpassing the previous year’s total.
