Standing With the Brave.

As fall paints Colorado in hues of red and gold, we extend our hearts and hands to honor some of our nation's bravest, our veterans and first responders, at the "Salute to America's Heroes" event on October 28. This event is organized by American Military Family, a Colorado-based charity with a mission of paramount importance, halting the epidemic of suicide among veterans and first responders. These remarkable individuals, who have dedicated their lives to upholding our safety and freedom, often carry unseen scars of their service. Our utmost duty is to offer them the respect, appreciation, and support they so rightfully deserve.

Event Highlights and Special Guests

The "Salute to America's Heroes" event will take place on Saturday, October 28, from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. at the Omni Interlocken Hotel. The dress code for the evening is country casual/western attire, reflecting our American pride.

We are honored to have some distinguished guests amongst us, including Bernard Kerik, the former New York City Police Commissioner during the 9/11 attacks; John "Tig" Tiegen, a true patriot who bravely fought for our nation and was portrayed in the compelling film 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi; and Dave Bray USA, a Navy Veteran turned Rock 'N Roll Patriot.

Additionally, the Kory Brunson Band will be there to enliven the evening. There will also be a raffle, a silent auction, and a live auction!
