Honor Roll - 2026
2026-05-14 18:00 - 2026-05-17 10:00 (America/Detroit) | The Highlands at Harbor Springs, 600 Highlands Drive, Harbor Springs, MI, 49740, United States
This May, we’re calling on YOU to be part of something bigger than just a weekend event. Team Honor is teaming up with Zoo-De-Mack to make an incredible impact on the lives of our Nation’s Gold & Blue Star Families and Veterans—all while celebrating 35 years of the legendary ZooDeMack 52-mile ride in beautiful Northern Michigan. Not a cyclist? No problem! We have something for everyone: Tee off with us for a scenic round of golf · Hop on the Team Shuttle and join the Mackinac Island Ferry adventure · Or get involved by volunteering to support your fellow team members throughout the weekend.
This weekend isn’t just about fun and sports—it’s about healing and community. Whether you’re a veteran, a family member, or a friend, this is your chance to connect, reconnect, and share with people who understand your journey. Together, we’ll discuss how to continue making an impact and creating lasting change for our nation’s veterans and their families. Special Guest: Captain Richard Phillips (Captain of the Maersk Alabama) is back with us to celebrate a special birthday—and you won’t want to miss it!

Friday Morning (5/15): Kick off with a ceremonial trip to the Heath M. Robinson Memorial Bridge in the Upper Peninsula, followed by a chartered tour of local establishments and a lively party hosted by ZooDeMack. (Not riding? $10 cover fee at the door.)
