Heroes Week
The Semper Fi Community Task Force would like to thank each volunteer, corporate sponsor, community partners, and the many volunteer groups who helped us with another tremendous week. This year we had the largest Welcome to Huntsville group ever and we know that it helped make for an even more memorable moment.
We hosted approximately 60 guests from the Marine Corps, Army and Navy for a week of much needed recognition and relaxation. We hope that our honored guests enjoyed their stay in the Tennessee Valley and felt the southern hospitality that was truly all about thanking them. We look forward to hosting another group of America’s Heroes next year.
For partnership or volunteer opportunities, please contact us.
