The History of Hot Dogs for Heroes

How Hot Dogs for Heroes Started

Five years ago we asked our friend, Jane Carroll (former Carrollton Asst. Chief of Police), how we might serve the local police in some way.  She spoke with Carrollton Police Chief Joel Richards and gave us his recommendation – that we help the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) support the Explorer Scout post.  That’s when we met Officers Chad Wilson and Chris Dunson – the Explorer Scout leaders.  With their help, Hot Dogs For Heroes was born.

That first year we sponsored a float in the 4th of July parade.  It was constructed by Mr. Tom Keever and the Explorers and honored local fallen law enforcement officers.  That float won the parade’s Spirit Cup Award!  After the parade, we opened our office’s backyard for free hot dogs, lemonade, music, and fun.

What’s Happening at Hot Dogs for Heroes in 2014

We’ve been honored to sponsor Hot Dogs For Heroes and Explorer Scout floats in the 4th of July parade each of the last five years.  Over that time we’ve worked with several great Carrollton police officers and lots of hard working Explorer Scouts.  This year we are expanding Hot Dogs For Heroes with even more food, games, and fun and to honor our military veterans as well.   We appreciate all of our friends, old and new, who have helped make Hot Dogs For Heroes such a success.  We thought you might enjoy meeting some of them.

Couldn’t be happier with the service they provided me. After so much time spent working with the VA to grant me disability for my service connected disabilities I was denied. Exhausted with the process and ready to give up a friend recommended this firm to assist me with an appeal. They handled all of it, keeping me updated regularly on progress, and eventually getting me the disability rating that was due. This was the happiest I’ve been to pay an invoice for services received.Kendall Lucy
100 % recomendable, in my humble opinion they are the best. I am very grateful with their assistance in filling my claim with the VA and winning They have done an outstanding job. They are professional ThanksFrancisco Javier Pérez A
They assessed my case as being potentially tdiu qualified and got to work right away. I only provided the information they asked me for and let them do their work. I didn’t hound them, I didn’t pester them, I just let them do their work and provided what they asked for and trusted the process. Within a few months or so I was awarded a tdiu rating. In my case I’m a combat vet of oef, but the Va had denied me twice for a benefit that I know I qualified for. The Perkins-studdard firm got the the benefit I deserved and I am eternally grateful for their expertise and hard work.M C
