Our home on Eglin continues blessing military and veteran families and this annual event, the one we host individually, is a big part of the blessing. With the Intrepid Spirit Center entering full operation, January 2024 was the highest occupancy on record in our 14 years. We are mindful that demand for our house on Eglin will only increase; we need to be prepared and can only do it with you.
Ways to help include sponsorships, silent and live auctions, by purchasing tickets and joining us for a light-hearted evening of inspiration messages and fellowship with other Fisher House fans who have become family. AmFund will be with us offering bucket list vacations.
The evening, led by our friend and HUGE fan Mike Guidry who returns as the Master of Ceremonies, will begin at 5:30 pm with a social, silent auction – great networking and visiting with friends and making new ones followed by a program at 7:00 pm with seating limited this year to 320 due to ballroom capacity – do NOT wait if you want to attend. Dinner will be served and guests will be treated with words of inspiration from Ryan Hendrickson. Ryan Hendrickson is a Special Forces Engineer in the U.S. Army. Ryan transferred over to the Army in 2008 after completing enlistments in both the Navy and Air Force. Ryan has many military deployments including Iraq, Afghanistan, and several South and Central American countries. Ryan’s decorations include the Silver Star, four Bronze Stars, a Purple Heart, and an Army Commendation Medal with Valor. When not abroad, he calls Florida home, which he shares with his lovely spouse Dawn. Here is a preview.
Creative, fun and memorable approaches are ALWAYS included with the marketing of this must-attend event. Sponsors and military can compete for the honor of Fisher House’s biggest fan by bringing the biggest team unseating, perhaps the 2023 Biggest Fan, Axient! (only) 320 seats are available, and will sell out. Supporting this event says thank you in a very tangible way to our military and veteran families who stay with us for hope and healing. Occupancy numbers remain high at our Fisher House on Eglin and when our house is at capacity, we place families in partner hotels. Join us to ensure there is always room in our inn. Individual tickets are $165.00.
Our fundraising goal for the evening is $100,000 and will go to support the structure of the house, internally and externally and to provide hospitality and hope for the families staying with us. Your help is greatly appreciated. Purchase Tickets and Sponsorships here.
