What is the Tank Pull Challenge?

The Tank Pull Challenge is a physical test of endurance, as competitors must make a determined effort to overcome the impossible odds of moving an immovable object – an 80,000 pound tank mounted on a flatbed truck. The clarion call for the competitor is take up the challenge and overcome the impossible!

Taking part in the Tank Pull Competition benefits the veterans, especially those who have been wounded in combat, and ensures that their service will not be forgotten.

This year, Catholic Charities, Diocese of Paterson, will be collaborating with the Knights of Columbus to organize this event and give back to our Veterans. Catholic Charities’ Supportive Services for Veteran Families gives back to hundreds of Veterans in need throughout New Jersey each day.

To date, the event has raised over $1.8 Million Dollars for wounded warriors and veterans in need.
