 2009 Heroes Breakfast

 

Our communities depend on local heroes, from the police and fire departments who protect us, the educators who inspire us, and the citizens who reach out in an emergency to help someone else.

Please join us for our next Heroes Breakfast as we honor these heroes. 

Nominate a Hero for the 2010 Heroes Breakfast.

2009 Event Details

Our Heroes Breakfast will be held on Tuesday, September 29 from 7:30 to 9 a.m. at the Rivers Club in One Oxford Center.

Enjoy a relaxing breakfast and help us honor everyday community heroes while listening to keynote speaker Dave Sanderson, a passenger of US Airways Flight 1549, which landed in the Hudson River in January 2009, during "The Miracle on the Hudson."


The breakfast includes bacon, eggs, potatoes, fruit, an English muffin, juice, coffee, and tea. Individual tickets are $50 per person or $500 for a table of 10.

All proceeds help us to continue our livesaving mission of helping people prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies.
