"Man Up" Day at Cherokee Home for Children
Cherokee Home for Children Events
Join us for "Man Up" on October 15, 2022!
Every year in the Fall we have a special gathering for men, called "Man Up!". This event is designed to give husbands, fathers, and their sons an opportunity to have fun, bond with other men, and get some spiritual feeding and encouragement. 2019's event featured Brad McCoy (father of Washington Redskins quarterback and former NCAA championship Univ. of Texas quarterback, Colt McCoy) as the speaker. He, and a panel of experienced fathers/husbands, led us in thoughts about what it means to "Take a Stand and Take the Lead" as Christian men in today's world.
Last year's (2021) event featured two very effective speakers and leaders: John Shero, preacher for the Southgate Church of Christ in San Angelo, and John Cannon, former full-time preacher for the Walnut Church of Christ in Texarkana. They shared their experience and insight on what it means to "Man Up" to prepare to pass the baton to the next generation of male Christian leaders.

ANNOUNCING! THIS YEAR'S EVENT will feature Scott Knudsen, a 5th generation Christian cowboy, motivational speaker, emcee, film judge, professional cowboy, brand ambassador, and rancher. Check him out here.
Join us this year and enjoy more! A great BBQ lunch will be served and there will be a small silent auction of some quality "manly" items. Throughout the day there will be displays and demonstrations of skills and hobbies, such as knife forging, golf swing coaching, Western jewelry making, handloading, firearms assembly, and more. Some displays might include fun contests with prizes. The event will begin at 10 a.m. and end around 4 p.m.
