Each year, the Manatee Hundred Club takes great pride in showing appreciation for our local law enforcement officers by serving them a warm meal at the Manatee County Fair. This tradition has become a much-anticipated event where officers gather together to enjoy a night of good food and camaraderie, with a small token of our gratitude for their tireless efforts in keeping our community safe.
This year, despite the unusually cold weather, the Manatee Hundred Club turned out in full force to serve dinner to our dedicated officers. Some of our members were on hand as part of the “grill team,” cooking up delicious meals, while other nights, local restaurant owners graciously donated their time and food to ensure our officers were well-fed and cared for.

The cold temperatures didn’t dampen the spirits of those involved—members and officers alike came together in the spirit of community and appreciation. The turnout was still strong, and the sense of solidarity between the Manatee Hundred Club and our law enforcement was as warm as ever.
We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all who participated, whether you were behind the grill or donating food. Your support makes a real difference and helps strengthen the bond between the Manatee Hundred Club and the law enforcement community we proudly serve. We look forward to continuing this tradition for years to come and are already excited for next year’s dinner at the fair.
Thank you again to our incredible law enforcement officers for everything they do, and to our generous members and local businesses for making this event possible!
