America’s Got Heroes Parade of Heroes
Do you see a hero? Take a few moments and imagine what the world would be like if there were no heroes. Our lives would be so much poorer. It’s doubtful the United States would even exist. Our history has had heroes since Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin, Robert Morris and others signed the Declaration of Independence.
The Parade of Heroes is the platform utilized to publicly thank and recognize the heroes of Central Pennsylvania. Deb Warner and Jen Spence from PCF were among the few honored citizens who participated in the Parade of Heroes which was part of the 4th Fest Celebration in State College. 
They were nominated by Sandy Hoffmaster who has been a dedicated volunteer working with them to make a difference in our community. The heroes selected to participate in the parade received a commemorative plaque and were transported individually in vehicles through the parade route with their names and town’s highlighted on banners alongside the vehicle. Deb and Jen had the honor of being transported by the beautiful Percheron draft horses owned by Hershey’s of Warriors Mart, PA. Those nominees not selected to be in the parade will receive honorable mentions and a certificate thanking them for their service to their community and country.
Volunteers and Board Members participated in the parade giving out candy and information on the success of what PCF has accomplished to date. The PCF van was part of the celebration being showcased to the public.
