Trot For Troops 5k
About this race
In honor of the POW/MIA National Recognition Day on September 19, 2026, we are holding an annual community event here in beautiful Branson, MO to honor U.S. Service Members who were Prisoners of War or Missing in Action, to support their families.
This event commemorates the sacrifices of those held captive and those still missing, and is part of the U.S. commitment to account for all service members lost in past and present conflicts.
This 5k Trot for Troops is part of this observance, which incorporates physical activity for a cause that honors and supports POW/MIA families. The 5k is more than race, and we in Branson demonstrate a way for our military community to show solidarity with the POW/MIA families, raise awareness, and support the mission of the POW/MIA Network.
If you and your family find yourself in the Branson, MO area, we cordially invite you to take part in this event.
