Celebrating Valentine’s Day With Our Military Couples

Winners of the 4th Annual WHUR and Copper Canyon Grill Heart2Heart Dinner enjoy a night out on the town.

Lanham, Maryland (February 11, 2019) – Our U.S. service members make real sacrifices each and everyday for our country.  WHUR and Copper Canyon Grill teamed up to say thank you to military couples, just in time for Valentine’s Day.

We treated 10 couples to a special candlelight dinner Saturday, February 9th at the Copper Canyon in Lanham.  The couples were winners of an on-line contest in which WHUR asked service members to write-in to tell us why they would enjoy a special “WHUR and Copper Canyon Grill Heart2Heart Dinner.”  After dozens of entries, 10 lucky couples were chosen.   Here’s a quick recap of their romantic evening.


In addition to the romantic dinner, couples also received flowers and a “WHUR Swag Bag,” complete with Jo Malone perfume, t-shirts and other goodies.

Special thanks to Lee’s Flowers and Card Shop, Joe Malone, Copper Canyon Grill, and the Howard University Radio Network.
