We believe some of the greatest heroes live right here in our community.
We're inviting you to nominate a veteran, active military member, or reservist who continues to lead, serve, inspire, and make a difference beyond the uniform. Share their story and help us celebrate the impact they make every day.
The recipient will receive an Island Appreciation Prize featuring a complimentary cabana rental, Without A Paddle Cafe food tickets, 24 Budweisers, and two kayak rentals.
How to nominate:
- Give Wekiva Island a follow!
- Tag your Local Hero in the comments
- Share a few words about what makes them deserving of recognition
Nominations are open through June 29.
A winner will be selected by the Wekiva Island Local Hero Committee, comprised of active-duty, reserve, and veteran military members of the Wekiva Island family. The recipient will be notified in advance and publicly announced and honored during the Red, White & Blue Semiquincentennial Ball on Thursday, July 2.
