ENTERPRISE, Ala. (WDNews) — Two local businesses in Enterprise are teaming up to remember a hometown hero and support the families of fallen service members.
On Saturday, May 17, 2025, CrossFit FXT will host a special “Hero Workout of the Day” in honor of CW3 Steve Dwyer, a 2004 Enterprise High School graduate and decorated Army Special Operations aviator who died in a helicopter crash in 2023. Workout sessions will begin at 7:30 a.m. and 9:00 a.m.
Dwyer’s memory is being honored through this event, which also raises money for the DWYERFIRE GOLDSTAR Foundation. The nonprofit helps Gold Star children stay involved in sports and fitness—values Dwyer believed in deeply.
Following the workout, Par & Pour, located in downtown Enterprise, will offer drink specials from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. for participants. The event is part of a community-wide effort to celebrate Dwyer’s life and legacy.
Dwyer was a West Point graduate and a member of the elite 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment. He served in Iraq and held several leadership roles throughout his military career. He is survived by his wife and three sons.
Supporters unable to attend can still contribute. Donations of $100 or more made in May will receive a commemorative DWYERFIRE flag.
