Be sure to view pictures from this year's Heroes Dinner
The Heroes Dinner was held on May 26th, Friday night of the Air Show at the historic St. James Hotel in Red Wing, MN.
The dinner was to honor three original crewmembers of the Doolittle Raiders, and for guests to meet Jimmy’s granddaughter Jonna Doolittle Hoppes.
Bryan Moon, MIA Hunter was the emcee and hosted a silent auction for one of his original artwork pieces. The money raised from the auction and the dinner went to support the air show.
We plan to make this an annual fund raising event and each year. Please contact us you would be interested in attending future events.
