About This Event
Camp Ripley Open House & Flag Line
- Date: September 20, 2009
- Description: Motorcyclists, most of them members of the Minnesota Patriot Guard, rode together into Camp Ripley, surrounded by a sea of people and flags. The parade of red, white and blue - along with plenty of leather and chrome - ran for two miles, as Patriot riders rode from the nearby Minnesota State Veterans Cemetery to Infantry Division Road in Camp Ripley. The riders parked along Infantry Division Road, lining this main thoroughfare into the camp with flags and bikes for about three-quarters of a mile. The goal was to create the longest Patriot Guard flag line, establishing a new world record with the Guinness Book of World Records held in conjunction with the annual community open house at Camp Ripley Sunday.
