March 22 “Country Nights” Dinner/Dance Event at Aqua Turf Club

is Non-Profit Veterans Service Organization’s Largest Fundraiser of the Year



Hamden, Conn., January 3, 2025 – House of Heroes Connecticut (HOHCT) is going country for its 9th

Annual Hearts & Heroes Gala March 22 at the Aqua Turf Club in Plantsville.


HOHCT’s “Country Nights, a Western Salute to Service” event will feature saloon-style games, musical

entertainment by American Honey, dinner, dancing, open bar, premium raffle and a silent auction. A

highlight of the evening will be presentation of the annual William J. May III Service Above Self Awards.

More than 250 guests are expected at the event, the non-profit veterans service organization’s largest

fundraiser of the year.


The William J. May III Service Above Self Awards are presented annually to the organization’s Sponsor,

Craftsman and Volunteer of the Year. The Strength in Service Award is a special category of the May

Award, presented periodically in recognition of extraordinary and/or unique contributions to our shared

communities. Awardees will be announced later this month.


The May Awards, established in 2019, honor the legacy of HOHCT’s late co-founder Bill May, a 24-year

Army Aviation veteran, Black Hawk helicopter test pilot and inspiring leader whose vision was to assist

fellow veterans in need of home renovations and repairs that would keep them safely in their homes.


Tickets for the event are $130 per person. Event tickets, tables, sponsorships and advertising

opportunities are available at www.hohct.org/countrynights


House of Heroes Connecticut is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that recognizes, honors and serves

military and public safety veterans and/or their surviving spouses for their sacrificial service to America.

The 9th Annual Hearts & Heroes Gala sounds like a beautiful tribute—blending heartfelt appreciation with a fun country twist! Events like this not only honor real-life heroes but also bring communities together in powerful ways. Much like a regulatory consulting company, success here relies on attention to detail, planning, and a strong sense of purpose. It’s inspiring to see causes celebrated with such care and creativity. Hats off to everyone involved!

What a wonderful event! The 9th Annual Hearts & Heroes Gala beautifully honors our veterans while fostering community spirit. Just as this gala celebrates service, a dissertation proposal service can help students articulate their research goals and contribute meaningfully to their fields. Both initiatives empower individuals to make a difference!

What a fantastic event for a noble cause! The gala’s energy and community spirit are inspiring. Just as you elevate heroes here, eBook promotion services can elevate authors—connecting meaningful stories with the right readers. Keep up the incredible work—and may your stories find the audiences they deserve!

«Какое замечательное мероприятие! Большое уважение House of Heroes Connecticut за то, что продолжают сочетать праздничную атмосферу с реальной поддержкой ветеранов и их семей. “Country Nights” обещает быть ярким событием: музыкальные выступления, ужин, танцы, а главное — признание тех, кто служил и жертвовал.

На моем блоге мерседес в класс с водителем на Павелецкий вокзал я тоже пишу об организациях, которые помогают ветеранам, и о том, как мероприятия такого уровня могут сплачивать сообщество и вдохновлять людей на добро. Буду рад(а) вашему мнению, заглядывайте!»
