This year's event was a huge success with over 1800 in attendance at Second Baptist Church. We are so thankful to Second Baptist Church for allowing us to host this event in the magnificent Worship Center. We unveiled three paintings of local fallen heroes by artist Ken Pridgeon. We were proud to have Wayne Newton as a guest speaker and to present the "Texas Heart of Service Award" to four outstanding patriots.

The music performances by Nash 3, Kevin Black and Second Baptist Choir & Orchestra were outstanding. Radio host, Joe Pags did an outstanding job as the Master of Ceremonies.
