We warmly invite all first and last responders—our community’s heroes—to join us for an afternoon of gratitude, food, and fellowship.
This appreciation cookout is our way of saying thank you to the EMTs, firefighters, law enforcement, medical professionals, hospice and support staff who show up day after day to serve others with courage and compassion.
Whether you’re on the front lines of emergencies or caring for families during their most tender moments, you are the backbone of our community—and we are grateful.
Please RSVP and share with your fellow responders!
Let’s come together to celebrate the strength, kindness, and unity that defines our service.
