Summer 2026: Brotherhood, Memories & Good Times

Some racing, a little time at the lake, a day at the movies, and a whole lot of time together — that’s what summer 2026 was all about.

We did a bit of everything: the Seafair Hydro Races, a day at Green Lake, some laps around K1, and a trip to the theater together. The activities were fun, but the real highlight was seeing the guys share plenty of laughs, make good memories, and build the close-knit brotherhood that comes from spending time together.

To get a closer look at our annual end-of-summer Buffalo Soldiers retreat that helped set the stage for the 2026-2027 school year for the Mentees and Mentors, read our 2026 Buffalo Soldiers Annual Retreat Newsletter.
