Funds being raised to support commissioning for USS IOWA SSN 797<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

(Wall Lake, IA) Cookies Food Products has teamed up with Big Grove Brewery and the Iowa Pork Producers Association (IPPA) in support of the USS Iowa SSN 797 christening, a soon-to-be commissioned nuclear submarine for the U.S. Navy. While this vessel will be the fourth U.S. NAVY ship named after the state of Iowa, the SSN 797 will be the first submarine to bear the state\u2019s name and the first to have dedicated quarters for both women and men.<\/p>\n

Beginning Memorial Day weekend through the Fourth of July, Iowans will find \u201cIowa\u2019s Backyard Beer & BBQ\u201d displays in stores across the state. All three companies will be providing support, or contributing a portion of sales through the Backyard BBQ program, to the SSN 797 Commissioning Committee. Big Grove donated $5,000 to the effort from proceeds of beer sales last summer and invited Cookies and IPPA to help kick-off summer Iowa-style in an effort to raise greater awareness.\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a privilege to partner with these great Iowa companies in support of a vessel that honors our great state and as a Navy veteran, I find this collaborative effort especially meaningful,\u201d said Speed Herrig, President of Cookies Food Products. \u201cTogether with Big Grove & Iowa Pork, we are encouraging others to celebrate those who protect our freedoms at their backyard barbecues this summer.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tom Hudson is a NAVY Retired Chief Petty Officer and serves as one of the Executive Directors of the Committee. \u201cWe\u2019re grateful to have support from Iowa-based organizations like these,\u201d Hudson noted. \u201cIt\u2019s exciting to help us show what Iowa is all about to the 130 dedicated service men and women and their families. On the world\u2019s stage, it\u2019s about connecting people to a submarine that will bear the pride of Iowa for the next thirty plus years.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Iowa-based Commissioning Committee has set a fundraising goal of $500,000 for upgraded features to ship habitability recreation and dining equipment. Remaining funds will be used for crew activities and celebration events featuring Iowa products. The Christening is scheduled for June 17th in historical Groton, CT,\u00a0 known as the Submarine Capital of the World.<\/p>\n

Customers who purchase these companies\u2019 products anywhere in the state of Iowa now through July 5, 2023 will be part of something special for Iowa\u2019s sailors and US Navy Veterans. Big Grove will soon be announcing plans for commissioning event watch parties along with other summer activities in support of the commissioning.<\/p>\n
