Each year the Col. James Wood, II Chapter seeks to recognize those in our community who provide us with excellent public service, such as our Police, Fire Fighter and Emergency Medical responders. Often in harm's way, working nights and weekends, saving lives and property, these modern day heroes are deserving of our respect and recognition. The Chapter also provides awards for feats of heroism and bravery
