Come join us on Saturday, September 12th, 2026 for our 3rd Annual Fundraising Banquet, sponsored by Modern Woodmen Fraternal Financial, at the Mount Vernon Events Center in Ashland, OH!

Dinner will be catered by On the Rise BBQ, and we are honored to welcome our special guest speaker, Dr. Jimmy Sites — nationally known outdoorsman, television host, author, and inspirational speaker. Jimmy has dedicated his life to sharing faith-filled stories from the outdoors and encouraging others through powerful, motivating messages.

We will have food, raffles, and games for all! There will be guns, trips, and many other great prizes to be won. This is sure to be another fun-filled evening supporting our mission of sending deserving veterans and first responders on outdoor adventures across the country.
