From flagship fundraisers in Slidell to family fishing days in Hopedale - this is where the Brotherhood connects
Held each spring in Slidell, LA.
The Charity Classic is more than a tournament; it is our primary engine for disaster resiliency. Held annually in Slidell, this premier event brings together the local community and business leaders to fund our $3,000 Disaster Relief Block. Every swing supports the rapid response cash grants and morale projects that sustain our families when the storm hits. With a history of sold-out fields, the Classic is where the Greater New Orleans business community stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the Shield.

Held each fall in Hopedale, LA.
Resiliency begins at home. Our annual Family Fishing Festival in Hopedale is designed to get our operators off the deck and into the marsh with their families. By focusing on connection and local coastal heritage, we provide a vital 'tactical pause' for the crews of MSST NOLA, Station NOLA, and PSU 308. This event celebrates the families behind the uniform, ensuring that the brotherhood remains strong long before the next deployment call.
October 2026 Date TBD
THE TACTICAL RHYTHM
Beyond our flagship tournaments, we maintain a year-round presence within the community and our adopted units. From Give-Back Nights at local restaurants to Unit Morale Cookouts and Raffle there is always a way to get involved. These smaller, high-impact events allow us to fund unit upgrades and provide immediate support for our families between the major seasons.
We partner with local businesses for 'Percentage Nights.' A portion of your meal or purchase goes directly to our relief fund.
Short-notice cookouts, gym equipment deliveries, and family support days for our adopted units: MSST, Station NOLA, and PSU 308.
Informal meet-ups and board meetings. The perfect way for new members or local sponsors to connect with the chapter leadership.
