IT'S MORE THAN A 30K Foot March & Trail Run!
The Norwegian Foot March and Trail Run (NFM) is an annual event sponsored by the Vessey AUSA Chapter of Minnesota. The NFM has represented the military community's signature running and fitness event over the past six years. Again this year, we are infusing the 30K Foot March course with a 30K and 5K Trail Run option open to the public, all military personnel and their families, Junior and Senior ROTC programs from across the US, and added music, a business expo, expanded collaboration, and cheers from spectators from the military and the local community. The event's proceeds will benefit the AUSA Troops of Tomorrow initiative, the Minnesota VA Food Pantry, and military programs throughout Minnesota.
AUSA Membership
The Vessey Chapter of AUSA is open to all military service members, Army ranks, and all components—including Active, National Guard, and Reserve—as well as Department of the Army civilians, retirees, corporations, businesses, concerned citizens, and family members. Indeed, AUSA welcomes anyone who subscribes to the philosophy of a strong national defense with particular concern for the Army.

Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers make a tremendous impact on the lives of those who serve. Whether you give a few hours a month, set aside time to participate in a social event, or take part in any of the countless other opportunities on a one-time, part-time, or regular basis, you can make a real difference in Minnesotans’ Soldiers' and their families' lives. We invite you to explore volunteer opportunities with the Vessey Chapter.
Please email us at adejesus@umn.edu to express your interest in our volunteer opportunities, and we will respond with information about these events.
