Our Story
On Dec. 24th. 2005, Christmas eve, we started a tradition of honoring our returning service members by organizing an event known as “Operation Welcome Home”, a celebration to show our support and recognition for their service to our country. We invite members of their city government, police, fire, VSO’s such as Blue Star Moms, VFW posts, American Legion members, military families groups, community groups, family members and neighbors. We work with motorcycle groups like the Warrior Watch Riders to escort the service member home to a surprise “Welcome Home!”
