During the event, we will also be accepting donations in support of Shields of Hope of West Michigan, a nonprofit organization comprised of local public servants who volunteer their time to provide hope, encouragement, and support to individuals and families in our community affected by cancer. A donation bucket will be available for anyone who wishes to contribute to this meaningful cause.

We are honored to recognize the service and sacrifice of our local first responders and look forward to bringing our community together for an afternoon of appreciation, fellowship, and gratitude.

We hope you'll join us on September 25th as we come together to celebrate those who serve our community every day!
