Heroes are all around us.  Policeman, fireman, paramedics, war veterans, soldiers and military personnel–many times they go unnoticed and unappreciated.  At Bass Pro Shops, we believe in heroes and believe they all deserve to be recognized and thanked.

To show how much we appreciate our Local Heroes and their service, Bass Pro Shops will open their doors Sunday night, December 9th, from 7pm to 10pm for a very special evening of activities, shopping, discounts and drawings.  All Local Heroes and their immediate families are invited to attend. (Must show badges or other identification to attend this event)

They and their family can visit the magical Christmas Village that is Santa’s Wonderland and enjoy items like slot car racing, laser and soft gun arcades, remote control cars and trains.  Heroes and their families can even have a free picture made with the jolly old elf himself.  (Free Santa photos available until 9pm)  A special offer for Heroes includes a 10% discount on any photo packages they decide to order that night.

Kids will enjoy making a stuffed Owl ornament during the special craft activity that is offered that night only (while supplies last or until 9pm).  Heroes and their families can enjoy the shopping with a 10% discount on regularly priced items plus take advantage of special sales offered throughout the store.  And, to wrap up the holidays, free gift wrapping is included.

Special drawings will be held for Bass Pro Shops gift cards beginning at 7:30pm.  And, to honor our Local and Military Heroes, a special ornament will be distributed to the first 100 Heroes (18 years and older) that arrive at 7pm at the Santa’s Wonderland exhibit inside the store.

Christmas is a time to remember what others have done.  There is no better time to show our appreciation for the local heroes that are around us every day.
