This year close to 1000 boxes of supplies were sent to our heroic men and women serving to protect our freedom. \u00a0Every cent and product collected goes directly to providing these packages to our service members.<\/p>\n<p>Every day\u00a0the brave men and women in our military service are risking their lives for us. \u00a0Our government does not provide some of their basic\u00a0needs. \u00a0As nearby bases and commissaries have shut down these items become difficult to acquire. \u00a0\u00a0Each year, starting in September, we search out local soldiers to adopt.\u00a0 We try to supply their entire camp. Their packages are mailed out the last week of November and are received by our soldiers for a little Christmas appreciation and cheer. \u00a0Our community has really come together on this project.\u00a0 People donate tons of supplies, make their own care packages and donate money for the mailings. Please join us in the effort to support these very brave men and women who protect us. \u00a0Remember, freedom is not free.<\/p>\n<p><strong>More than a concert<\/strong> \u2013 In addition to great music and a great cause, the Downtown Hoedown will feature great BBQ with other food choices, as well as refreshing beverages from Corona, Jim Beam, and Ole Smoky Moonshine.
