Now that we’ve had a chance to cool down from this year’s event, we’ve also had some time to reflect on just how successful the 20th Annual Five Seasons Stand Down 2026 was. ❤️💙

A HUGE thank you to everyone who helped make it happen—to our incredible volunteers, sponsors, donors, supporters, and everyone who spread the word and showed up. THANK YOU! Your time, energy, generosity, and support made a difference.

We’re incredibly grateful for this community and the way everyone continues to come together to support those in need.

And a special shout-out to Jeff Sigmund for capturing these amazing photos and helping us remember the day! 📸

Until next year…thank you for making Stand Down 2026 one to remember! 🇺🇸

Happy Stand Down Eve! 🇺🇸

Today, we were incredibly blessed to have an amazing team from General Mills join us to help get ready for tomorrow's 20th Annual Five Seasons Stand Down 2026!

There was A LOT of unloading and setting up—tables, chairs, boxes, supplies, totes, and more! And to top it all off, General Mills also made a generous donation of cereal that will help support participants in our community. 🥣❤️

A huge THANK YOU to the General Mills team for rolling up your sleeves and helping us prepare for what we know will be an incredible day tomorrow. We truly couldn't do it without the support of amazing community partners like you!

Let the countdown to Stand Down begin! 💙🇺🇸

🎉 HUGE SHOUT OUT TO LIL DRUG STORE! 🎉

Once again, the incredible team at Lil Drug Store Pharmacy has stepped up in a BIG way to help make our 20th Annual Five Seasons Stand Down 2026 possible! ❤️🇺🇸

Last week, their amazing team filled 250 bags in just 18 minutes and 24 seconds — beating their time of 22 minutes last year! 🏆👏 Now THAT is teamwork!

We are so grateful for the continued generosity, support, and heart Lil Drug Store brings to Stand Down. Their support helps us welcome and serve veterans and participants from across our community who come together for this special event.

Thank you, Lil Drug Store team, for 20 years of showing up and helping make Stand Down possible! We couldn't do it without you! ❤️🇺🇸

🇺🇸 Honoring a Legacy of Service 🇺🇸

We are deeply grateful to Sharon United Methodist Church for a very special gift to Five Seasons Stand Down and our mission of supporting veterans.

Although the church closed its doors on December 31, 2025, its commitment to serving others continues. The Church Council chose to make a generous gift in memory of John Powers, a longtime member who was deeply dedicated to supporting our veterans.

What a beautiful way to carry forward John’s legacy of service and compassion. His memory—and the generosity of the Sharon United Methodist Church family—will make a difference for veterans at Stand Down.

Thank you for helping us continue this important work in John’s memory. ❤️🇺🇸
