On Thursday, August 29, Greg Quarles, Executive Director and Southeast Chapter President for SC Arrows for Heroes embarked on a 357-mile walk across South Carolina to raise awareness for Veterans and SC Arrows for Heroes. SC Arrows for Heroes is the SC Chapter of a national, Veteran-run, non-profit organization using the sport and art of archery to help combat/service Veterans cope, heal and experience being part of a team again. Arrows for Heroes specializes in adaptive archery for those who have suffered some of the most severe physical wounds in service to our country.

Greg is a three-time Purple Heart recipient who served multiple tours in Afghanistan and Iraq as a US Army Airborne Ranger.
