Walker County Warrior Banquet – Recap

The Walker County Warrior Banquet held annually in Huntsville, TX is a fantastic display of the best of America.

Walker County Warrior Banquet Highlights

It was a great evening with fantastic speakers, beautiful music thanks to Branded who have earned the title of “Duo of the Year” 5 years and even had the Christian Country song of the year in 2008.

We want to thank all of the sponsors and those that donated fantastic items for both auctions. As well as thanking those who were in attendance that helped make this event such a great success. Most of all, we’d like to take a moment to appreciate the brave men and women who were not able to attend as they have paid the ultimate sacrifice to defend our freedoms.

It’s through events like the Walker County Warrior Banquet that we’re able to provide our programs at no costs to our warriors.
