Back to the Bricks is proud to recognize the men and women who have served our country. We are seeking nominations for our 2026 Veteran of the Year—a local veteran whose story of service, leadership, and commitment continues long after their military career.

We’re looking for former service members who demonstrate outstanding character and make a positive impact through their careers, community involvement, volunteerism, and philanthropic efforts.

The selected Veteran of the Year will be recognized during the Back to the Bricks Opening Ceremony on Saturday, August 15, 2026, receive a commemorative Back to the Bricks T-shirt, and be featured on our social media channels. Additional nominated veterans may also be highlighted throughout the summer as we share their inspiring stories.

Do you know a veteran who deserves to be recognized?
