Operating solely through donations\, grants\, and sponsorships\, the Warrior Memorial\nReefs Foundation ensures that 100% of contributions support the mission\, with no board member receiving compensation. There is zero\nexpense to the family for their warrior’s reef and Celebration of Life ceremony at sea. \n“We are thrilled to partner with Point South Marina to create a premier fishing tournament that not only celebrates our coastal community but\nalso advances our mission to honor fallen heroes\,” said Joe Theodorou\, President of the Warrior Memorial Reefs Foundation. “By including\nSnapper and Grouper\, we anticipate greater participation and aim to establish this event as a cornerstone for future fundraising.”\nSponsorship and vendor packages are available. \nEarlybird registration is open from July 26 to August 1\, 2025.
