Now entering its 18th year, Heroes Salute brings together Hawks Cay Resort and Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation to honor the men and women who serve America and our communities. Join us and Congressman Brian Mast on The Landings for a special tribute recognizing these everyday heroes.

We invite you to complete the WHO’S YOUR HERO form below and share the story of a spouse, child, relative, friend, or colleague whose service deserves recognition. Their photo and story will become part of the Heroes Salute Tribute presentation.
