The Camellia Bowl will welcome IS4S as its corporate sponsor beginning with the 2024 bowl season.
As a result of this new partnership the game will become the IS4S Salute to Veterans Bowl.
“We are very excited to partner with an Alabama based company and honor those men and women in the United States military,” executive director Johnny Williams said. “This is an exciting time in the history of our game. We’ve developed a great relationship with the City of Montgomery and Montgomery County in our first 10 years, and now we are thrilled to partner with IS4S to further promote college football.”
The city of Montgomery has been named a Great American Defense Community by the Association of Defense Communities, and Montgomery Mayor Steven L. Reed is excited by the new partnership.
“We are excited to see this change coming to the [former] Camellia Bowl,” said Mayor Reed. “Considering IS4S’ involvement with our military, and Montgomery having the distinction of being named a Great American Defense Community by the Association of Defense Communities, I can think of no better partnership for this prestigious bowl game we host right here in our community.”
The IS4S Salute to Veterans Bowl will be played Saturday, Dec. 14 at the historic Cramton Bowl in downtown Montgomery. The game will be televised by ESPN and kick off at 8 p.m. (CT), immediately following the 2024 Heisman Trophy presentation.
“The IS4S Salute to Veterans Bowl is more than just a football game – it’s a celebration of Montgomery County’s deep-rooted history as a proud military community,” Doug Singleton, Chairman of the Montgomery County Commission, said. “This event gives us a special opportunity to honor the brave men and women who have served our country, while also showcasing the incredible athletic talent of two universities. Montgomery County is proud to support this game, which reflects our commitment to recognizing the sacrifices of our veterans and their contributions to our community and nation. We look forward to a great game!”

“Sponsoring this bowl is a small gesture to express our immense gratitude for the men and women who have sacrificed so much to protect our nation and defend our freedoms,” IS4S President and CEO Glenn Rolader, Ph.D., said. “We’re not doing this to advertise IS4S. We simply want to salute our veterans and thank them for what they do for our country. And to do it here in Montgomery – the capital of our home state – we consider it the highest honor to be the title sponsor of the Salute to Veterans Bowl.”
The IS4S Salute to Veterans Bowl, formerly the Camellia Bowl, is in its 11th season, and nine of the first 10 games were decided by eight points or less.
