These speakers include Young Visionaries Foundation’s CEO, Kenan Mujkanovic, Melinda Hall, Rick Williams, Jim Decesare, and many more. Catering will be provided, and it is included in the entry fee. The money we raise from this even will go into helping the lives of those that have sacrificed so much for this country. Let’s show appreciation and
