O.M.E.H. BIKE TOUR, FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA

In the last 20 years, over 15,000 members of the United States military service have given their lives defending our country. More than 3,400 Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines, and Guardsmen have been killed in the war on terror, leaving behind approximately 2,000 children.

In the fall of 2007 Chip Schultz will embark on a month-long journey across America on a bicycle. His goal is to raise money and awareness for the bravery, dedication, and heroism exhibited by more than 1.2 Million Americans who have laid their lives upon the altar of freedom, thus becoming and forever remaining our Extraordinary Heroes.

Sixty percent (60%) of the money raised will be donated to the Freedom Alliance Scholarship Fund, which honors these Extraordinary Heroes, who have sacrificed life and limb, by providing educational scholarships to their children. The remaining forty percent (40%) will be used to accomplish the mission of O.M.E.H. and to establish O.M.E.H. as a non-profit organization with 501(c)3 status.

On Monday, September 3, 2007, Chip will depart New York City on his bicycle. Pedaling From Sea to Shining Sea, and averaging 80 miles per day, he will celebrate his victory upon arriving in Huntington Beach, California on Saturday, October 20, 2007. Chip will be making time to speak with children at schools and youth facilities along the way, about the real American Heroes who have sacrificed their own lives for the betterment of a greater cause – Freedom.
