Coors Banquet brought the community together at TJ's Corral at Carson Valley Inn earlier this month for the fifth annual Protect Our Protectors Benefit Concert, featuring a performance by The Castellows.
Through ticket sales, donations, merchandise, the silent auction, and b**r and bar proceeds, the event raised nearly $50,000 in support of our mission and the wildland firefighters and families we serve.
Coors Banquet has continued to stand behind the wildland fire community year after year, and we’re grateful for the commitment they’ve shown us through this event and beyond.
This year’s concert was also made possible with support from New West Distributing, including an additional $5,000 donation, and East Fork Professional Firefighters Local 3726, who contributed another $500.
We also appreciate Carson Valley Inn Casino and TJ’s Corral for continuing to host this event and creating a great setting for the Carson Valley community to come together around this cause.
To The Castellows, everyone who attended, donated, bid in the silent auction, purchased merchandise, supported the bar, or helped make the evening happen behind the scenes, we appreciate you being part of it.
Nearly $50,000 raised in one evening is a significant impact, and we’re grateful to everyone who helped make it possible.
