Hometown Heroes

Celebrating people who care about our community

HOSA honors HOSA Hometown Heroes in an effort to recognize and encourage excellence from members of our community. Just as the HOSA Bob & Virginia Meyer Award has for years recognized significant projects that have advanced the charm of our Ocean Springs, the HOSA Hometown Hero honor was created to recognize outstanding individuals amongst us all, whose example, service, and contributions have been significant and positive in their impact on our community, and who bring honor to Ocean Springs.
