Admission to the concert is free, thanks to the generosity of local businesses including Title Sponsor American Furniture Warehouse and Entertainment Sponsor HSL Properties. 

 

 

“Rockin’ 4 Heroes is unique, there is no other single event that enables our community to gather together to thank and celebrate all four of these hero groups,” said Bonnie Quinn, who along with husband Michael, founded Rockin’ 4 Heroes.  “Admission is free because we want to ensure there are no barriers of entry for anyone who wants to attend and to enjoy a fun afternoon while honoring these heroes who serve and protect our country and communities.”
