Chad Regnier — Concrete Inc., Shawn Flavin — SMA Insurance, Dave Olson — Thermo-Tech Windows & Doors and Amanda Othoudt presented a check to Tom Lyons, Vietnam veteran of the U.S. Air Force and Maj. Gen. Jon Trost on behalf of the Minnesota Military Family Foundation of just over $13,500 generated from the 7th annual Shoot for the Troops event Sept. 17 at LeBlancs Rice Creek Game Farm in Little Falls.

The Shoot for the Troops fundraiser is an annual event founded by Chad Regnier, Concrete, Inc.; Shawn Flavin, SMA Insurance; Dave Olson, Thermo-Tech Windows, Inc. and Denny Olson, First Look Logos Inc.; each of these companies is based out of St. Cloud. This event was established as a way to give back to our service men and women who have sacrificed their lives for our freedom.

The money raised from the Shoot for the Troops event goes directly to the Minnesota Military Family Foundation and helps support the military families that are in need of a little extra help during times of financial hardship. With over 75 people involved this year, we raised more than $13,500 and over $53,000 total during the past seven years for the Minnesota Military Family Foundation.
