SERVPRO of Wright County was proud to serve as a Title Sponsor for today's annual I94 West Chamber First Responder Luncheon. This event is a heartfelt tribute to the brave men and women in our communities who serve as police officers, firefighters, EMS personnel, dispatchers, and more. Each year, we eagerly anticipate this opportunity to express our gratitude and support for the extraordinary dedication of our local heroes.

Today's gathering was truly remarkable, with over 250 attendees coming together to honor our first responders. We observed a moment of silence to remember the fallen in Burnsville and paid tribute to Fargo Police Officer Jake Wallin, with touching words from his father. Hosting the event was none other than Dick Bremer, the esteemed voice of the MN Twins. It was inspiring to hear the stories of award recipients who have saved lives through their courageous actions.

Moreover, all proceeds from this luncheon contribute to the invaluable work of three exceptional non-profit organizations: the Minnesota Law Enforcement Memorial Association, Fallen Firefighter Memorial Association, and Magnus Veterans Foundation. These organizations provide vital support to veterans, first responders, and their families, embodying the spirit of service and sacrifice. We are honored to play a part in supporting their important mission.
