Lakes Area Heroes Banquet 2026

Some people show up for this community every single day — and on April 24, Lakes Area Heroes is throwing a banquet to honor them. This annual gathering celebrates the everyday heroes of the Brainerd Lakes Area: the first responders, educators, volunteers, and neighbors who quietly make this place better. The evening takes place at the Northern Pacific Center in Brainerd starting at 4:30 PM. Proceeds support the Lakes Area Heroes organization and their ongoing mission to serve those who serve us.
