Walk With Purpose. Walk With Us.

Join the Live Like Locals Salute to Service Walk Team, led by a cancer survivor, community builder, and proud veteran advocate Jose Rosa.

We’re walking to honor the service and sacrifice of our veterans—especially the courageous women who’ve served our country. This isn’t just a walk; it’s a movement of gratitude, support, and unity.

By joining our team, you’re not only showing your support—you’re helping fund real programs that make a difference: wellness retreats, mental health support, and community-building efforts for female veterans through the Women Veterans of the Coastal Empire.

Whether you’re walking in memory of someone, in support of a loved one, or simply because you believe in this mission—this is your chance to make it count.

Then stay and celebrate with us at the Fall Festival at Scott Stell Park—live music, food trucks, games, giveaways, and a park full of energy and heart.

Be part of something bigger. Walk with Jose. Walk with Live Like Locals. Walk with purpose.

Join our team today.

  • Monthly gatherings, providing a safe space for veterans to connect, share experiences, work on personal development and build community.
  • Wellness retreats, equipping veterans with self-care techniques and resources to prioritize their mental and physical health.
  • Community outreach programs, fostering teamwork and service-mindedness while bridging the gap between veterans and the broader community.
