In 2025, we focused on the journey from
Garage to Great.
In 2026, as our nation marks its
250th anniversary, we recognize that the "American Startup" is the greatest success story in history. Join us as we share our new theme,
Garage to Great: Powering America 250
and celebrate you—the business owners, nonprofits, and leaders who serve as the engine of our community.
Just as the founders of 1776 drafted a blueprint for freedom, you are drafting the blueprints for our local prosperity. Tonight, we honor the power of your hard work and the
bright future we are building together.
We will again offer a
$10 "Balloon POP"
with all money going to our local High School Scholarship program. Don't miss out. Tickets are $35.00 each and includes a delicious meal provided by R&R BBQ. The fun begins at 6 PM so don't be late!
Thank You Patriot Table Sponsors
