Our Mission
Our mission is to meet the needs of York County Veterans while also supporting local nonprofits that serve them. Through strong partnerships with the York County Department of Veterans Affairs, the YORKVET Network, and local, state, and federal officials, we can address both immediate and longterm needs. Most importantly, all funds raised stay within York County, where they are used to improve the lives of our Veterans.
Announcement!
We are pleased to announce Maple Grove Raceway has joined our ever growing list of sponsors & are making a substantial investment to the show this year. Along with being a 4-star General sponsor they are donating two suite passes for Friday night qualifying and two for the Sunday finals during NHRA Keystone Nationals in September. These tickets will be sold during our live auction and are priceless since they are ONLY available by invitation. Special thanks to Ken Koretsky and the Maple Grove Raceway team for the their generous sponsorship helping our local veterans in need.
