The 3rd Annual Smyrna Heroes Gala will be held at Brawner Hall, 3180 Atlanta Road, on September 8th, 7-10pm.
The Smyrna Heroes Gala is a community-wide, volunteer effort by area residents and businesses that honors our fire and police heroes by setting aside one evening to celebrate these dedicated individuals who protect and serve our community 24/7. Proceeds from the Gala benefit the Smyrna Public Safety Foundation (SPSF), a 501(c)(3) organization that supports both the community and Smyrna’s Public Safety employees.
So put on your festive attire and dancing shoes. Join Honorary Chair, Smyrna Mayor A. Max Bacon, our heroes, area residents and businesses as we commemorate Smyrna’s Heroes in a Gala rapidly becoming one of Smyrna’s ‘must attend’ events each year.
