Join us for a truly heartfelt and unforgettable evening at the renowned Wicked Weed Funkatorium in downtown Asheville on Saturday, October 17, 2026. This special night brings our community together to celebrate Veterans who have completed the Unbroken Spirit program and are moving forward with renewed purpose, resilience, and hope.

This year’s celebration is especially meaningful, as Team 3-26 will have just completed their backpacking expedition, giving guests the unique opportunity to meet the Veteran team, hear their stories firsthand, and connect with them at a pivotal moment in their journey.

The evening will be a patriotic and uplifting celebration filled with camaraderie, gratitude, and powerful moments of connection. Enjoy a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere featuring an open bar and a delicious epicurean spread, all set within the iconic Funkatorium—an ideal backdrop for shared stories, laughter, and reflection.

To ensure a seamless experience, transportation will be provided from the Walnut Cove Tavern to and from the Funkatorium, allowing you to fully enjoy the evening without worry. As Veterans share their experiences, you’ll gain insight into the transformative impact of Unbroken Spirit and the role supporters like you play in helping Veterans rediscover strength, purpose, and community.

At its heart, this event is about being Stronger Together—forging lasting bonds with our Veterans and standing beside them as they take their next steps forward. Together, we show that healing and growth are possible through connection and collective support.

Your ticket grants access to an incredible evening while directly supporting Unbroken Spirit’s mission to serve more Veterans in the years ahead. We hope you’ll join us for this meaningful celebration—because when we come together, we are Unbroken.

Thank you to our presenting sponsors: Wicked Weed Brewing and Gabriel Builders.
