The BackStoppers Events

Each year the organization benefits from many and varied events held throughout the community. We are deeply grateful for the funds that these affairs generate.

General Meetings

The BackStoppers is not a social organization. We come together specifically to support our mission of assistance to the families of fallen police officers and firefighters. We do, however, host one general meeting each year. At this dinner meeting, we keep our members current on organizational affairs.

  • all members receive invitations to these events
  • the dinners are complimentary to members
  • guests are welcome but are subject to a guest charge

Budweiser Guns ‘N Hoses
Celebrates 25th Anniversary;
Has raised More than $3.2 million

November 2013 Date to be Announced

GNHBudweiser Guns 'N Hoses features three-round boxing matches between area Police Officers and Firefighters to raise money for The BackStoppers, the organization that provides immediate financial aid and long-term financial and other support to the families of Police Officers and Firefighters who lose their lives in the line of duty.

Grey Eagle Distributors and Budweiser have been title sponsors of Guns ‘N Hoses since the event began in 1987.  The first event only raised a few thousand dollars but from that low-key start, Budweiser Guns ‘N Hoses has grown into one of the premier fund-raisers in the St. Louis area, drawing near-capacity crowds while raising more than $3.2 million for The BackStoppers.  It is held in the Scottrade Center in downtown St. Louis on Thanksgiving Eve.
