The Thunder Run departs from the James A. Lovell Federal Health Care Center in North Chicago at 11 a.m. Motorcycles and cars are welcome. Drivers pay $20 and passengers pay $10 to raise funds to provide a monthly stipend to Veterans Path to Hope, MIA repatriation ceremonies and other endeavors.
Participants will begin to gather at the federal health care center at 8 a.m., registration begins at 9 a.m. and a safety briefing will take place at 10:30 a.m. The last driver is estimated to arrive in Woodstock about 12:30 p.m.
