Salute to our Troops
A Celebration to Honor the Military Troops of North Carolina
Held April 26, 2008 – Downtown Raleigh

The event was designed to show the troops of North Carolina how much the people of the state appreciate all that they do and the sacrifices that they (and their families) make.

Golden Corral Corporation was delighted to participate in the “Salute to our Troops."

Dedicated service is one of the values that have built Golden Corral from a single Fayetteville restaurant in 1973 to one of North Carolina's favorite family buffets. It is with great pride that we bring that same dedicated service to this event that honors service men and women from North Carolina and want to thank them and their families for the sacrifice that they have made for our state and for our country.

Golden Corral restaurants have previously stepped up to the challenge with their Military Appreciation Monday program, held yearly in November to offer a free ‘thank you’ dinner to any person who has ever served in the United States Military (both past and present).
