Captain John “Woody” Woodall, a Retired Fire Captain from Raleigh, NC, issues a call to “Stand Tall" for America’s Heroes. Camp4Heroes Inaugural Hero Fest kicks off this year on November 2nd, 2019, at
Catch the Fire Event Center
in Raleigh-Durham. Hero Fest is a day for celebrating the amazing men and women who serve our country in military and first responder communities.
The day will be packed full of entertainment provided by wounded veterans and first responders along with celebrity appearances as well. The day's activities begin at 2:50 p.m. with the arrival of Honor the Warriors cycling troupe who is raising money per mile of their ride that day to donate to Camp4Heroes. The doors will then open and the Visual Art Explosion exhibit where artwork created by wounded veterans and first responders of various mediums will be on display.
There will be a Variety Show from 7:00 p.m - 9:30 p.m. consisting of comedians, singers, and others selected to perform, with a brief intermission for the Live Auction at 8:00 p.m. Throughout the event there will be opportunities to grab bites of food prepared by award winning chefs. Hero Fest Day will be the event of the year...not only for the spectacle provided by those who serve our community, but also because it will be the fundraiser which allows Camp4Heroes to flourish and which will create the sanctuary where our service members can feel at home interacting with like minded individuals as they journey back to a place of peace within themselves.
Various levels of sponsorship for the event are available, along with opportunities for volunteer work to help this event kick off flawlessly. For volunteer inquiries:
