Nashville Sounds Announce Return Of 'Hometown Hero' Program

The Nashville Sounds will honor veterans and first responders at home games with its “Hometown Hero” program presented by Middle Tennessee State University – Charlie and Hazel Daniels Veterans and Military Family Center.

The Sounds will honor veterans, active members of the armed forces, paramedics, emergency medical technicians, police officers and firefighters during select home games throughout the 2021 season. Selected heroes will receive complimentary tickets to a Sounds game and be recognized on the iconic guitar scoreboard during a special in-between inning feature.

The Daniels Center’s mission is to provide transition services for Veterans and their families as they return to civilian life after military service. The Daniels Center is the largest and most comprehensive veterans center on any Tennessee higher education campus, and enables the over 1000 military-connected student population on campus to have a one-stop shop to meet a variety of academic needs.

Fans and members of the community can nominate local service members on the Sounds website. All nominees must be, or have been, a member of the United States Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Coast Guard, or a paramedic, emergency medical technician, police officer or firefighter.
