🎮 Hey, fellow veterans and gamers! 🇺🇸

I wanted to share something with everyone, especially my fellow veterans who enjoy gaming or are looking for another community to be part of.

I recently came across REGIMENT Gaming, a veteran-focused nonprofit that brings veterans and active-duty service members together through gaming.

One thing I know from my own time in the Army is that it's hard to replace the camaraderie and brotherhood you had while serving. Finding people who understand that part of your life isn't always easy, and I think it's pretty awesome that organizations like this are out there creating those opportunities.

They have some really cool programs too, including gaming tournaments, free games for eligible members, employment resources, and even a Supply Drop program where veterans can apply to receive gaming equipment.

Membership is free, and there's a lot worth checking out, whether you're a serious gamer or just enjoy hopping online and playing with friends.

If you're a veteran or still serving, I'd encourage you to take a look. You never know what connections you might make or what opportunities might come from it.

Here's my link if you want to join and check it out!

At the end of the day, it's about more than just playing video games. It's another way for us to stay connected, build friendships, and have a little fun along the way.

Veterans supporting veterans. That's something I'll always get behind. 🇺🇸

REGIMENT is America's LARGEST Military Gaming Community! REGIMENT was founded in 2020 with the mission of uniting Veterans and Service Members of the U.S. Armed Forces, through the power of gaming. You are not alone. We have your six.

🍂🥾 Route Step Outdoors: Franklin Ghost Town Hike Recap! 🍁🌲

What an incredible day exploring the historic Franklin Ghost Town in Black Diamond!

We had a fantastic turnout today, and Mother Nature couldn't have given us better fall weather! The vibrant autumn colors, leaves covering the trails, and beautiful scenery made for a picture-perfect day in the Pacific Northwest. 🍁🍃

We started with an easy trek out to the old mine and through the historic cemetery, taking in the history and beauty of the area along the way.

Then, for those feeling a little more adventurous, we made our way down into the gorge to check out the river! It was definitely a decent scramble, but the views and experience were well worth the workout! 💪🌊

As always, the best part wasn't just the destination. It was the conversations, laughter, connections, and time spent outdoors together.
It's bittersweet knowing we have just one more hike left in our season! We've made some incredible memories, explored beautiful places, and built meaningful connections along the way.

A huge thank you to everyone who came out today and helped make this another great Route Step Outdoors adventure!

We look forward to seeing you all on the trail again soon!

Fresh air. Good company. Stronger connections.

🥾 Welcome to All Our New Followers!

We’re glad you found Route Step Outdoors!

Route Step Outdoors is a nature-based peer-support program through NineLine Veteran Services. We bring veterans, active-duty service members, military families, and civilian supporters together through hiking, camping, outdoor adventures, and meaningful connection.

Although supporting the military and veteran community is at the heart of our mission, our civilian friends and supporters are absolutely welcome to follow this page and join us at our events. Building a strong community takes all of us!

You don’t have to be an experienced hiker or own fancy outdoor gear to participate. Our activities are designed to be welcoming, supportive, and enjoyable for people of different experience levels. Sometimes we challenge ourselves, sometimes we slow down and enjoy the view, and sometimes we simply walk beside someone who needs the company.

This is about more than reaching the end of a trail. It’s about building friendships, supporting one another, sharing some laughs, and creating a community where nobody has to walk alone.

Follow our page to learn about upcoming hikes, outdoor events, and opportunities to connect. We hope to see you out on the trail soon!

It’s okay not to be okay—but it’s not okay to handle it alone.

🥾 ERIC LAIRD MEMORIAL HIKE — A DAY OF REMEMBRANCE

What a truly special day at Snoqualmie Tunnel.

Today, 21 people came together with Route Step Outdoors to walk in remembrance of Eric Laird and to surround his family with support, connection, and community.

Eric’s parents, Dave and Wendy, shared their son with us—not just the story of his military service, but who Eric was as a person, a brother, a son, a husband, and a friend. We were incredibly honored to hear his story and to host a day dedicated to remembering the life he lived and the impact he left behind.

Before we began our hike, our chaplain shared a few words, and we went around the circle asking everyone to give one word that represented Eric.

Warrior. Brother. Compassionate. Caring. Adventurous. Animal lover.

Each word told a small piece of a much bigger story.

Along the trail, everyone was also given the opportunity to take a rock and write the name of someone they have lost. At the end of our journey, we placed those rocks together in remembrance—a simple but powerful reminder that none of the people we carry with us are forgotten.

Today wasn't just about hiking through a tunnel. It was about remembering. It was about telling stories. It was about supporting a family. And it was about giving people a place to connect and heal together in nature.

Today, each one of us carries a little bit of Eric with us.

To Dave, Wendy, and the entire Laird family: thank you for trusting us with Eric's story and allowing us to walk alongside you today.

And to all 21 people who showed up to support this wonderful family—thank you. This is what community looks like.

We remember Eric. We carry his story forward. And we continue walking together. 🥾❤️
