About this Event

Talk To Me

A Celebration of Connection, Community & Conversation

Talk To Me is where veterans, families, and community come together to meet new people, share stories, build connections, and celebrate the power of community. This is not your typical event — it’s an experience filled with energy, laughter, inspiration, and meaningful conversations.

Through our interactive Table Shuffle experience, guests will mix, mingle, and meet people from all walks of life while sharing their story in a fun and engaging way. Whether you are a veteran, military family member, community leader, business owner, supporter, or someone who simply loves connecting with people, there is a seat at the table for you.

Come ready to be inspired, meet amazing people, discover new opportunities, and celebrate the strength, resilience, and spirit that make our communities stronger.

Bring your story. Bring your energy. Bring your smile. Let's talk, connect, and build something great together.
