Operation: Hats Off For Veterans is a charitable public annual gala held at Texas Old Town in Kyle, TX. This fundraiser helps to raise money for the 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization, Hats Off For Veterans (HOFV) and their Veterans' higher education and apprenticeship and professional development programs.

Please join us on Sunday, April 21, 2024, as we come together for our 19th year of O:HOFV to enjoy a day of *Black’s BBQ, door prizes, fun, and games for children of all ages including the Kiddie Express Train, Moonwalks, a photo booth, face-painting and live music headlined by Texas Country Artist and U.S. Army Veteran Bart Crow. Doors open at 2 p.m. and headliner begins at 4 p.m.

*Please note that barbecue plates will only be served between 2:30 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. due to health code restrictions.

There will be a silent and live auction including autographed hats from Grammy award-winning artists. There will also be signed sports memorabilia, his and her jewelry, gift baskets, bed and breakfast getaways, and many more one-of-a-kind auction items.

HOFV is seeking sponsors of all levels to help offset the cost of the event. A Medal of Honor Business contribution ($750) pays for a reserved table for eight guests including a Black’s BBQ plate. Your company name and logo will be included on all printed materials including the website and social media. Your company may hang a promotional banner or sign at the event.
