Heroes Resource Center hosts an appreciation BBQ each year on the Saturday before Memorial Day. This event is designed to bring together Veterans, Active-Duty Service Members, First Responders, and their Families for a day of connection and enjoyment. It's an opportunity to appreciate the resilience and camaraderie of those who serve, ahead of the solemn observance of Memorial Day itself.

By hosting one of the largest free military appreciation BBQs in Central Texas, we offer a day of relaxation, engaging activities, and the chance for attendees to connect with local businesses and non-profits committed to supporting our service community, all at no cost to our heroes.

We rely on your support to make this event a highlight of community and camaraderie. Together, we can ensure this celebration continues to be a cherished occasion, bringing a moment of joy and unity to our service members and their families.
