Veterans Voice

Veterans day is a day to give tribute to all soldiers who have served the United States during the time of war and fallen or came back home. It helps to show your patriotism and recognize and honor those who have served the nation and are continuously protecting us. This year we will celebrate inside the Veterans Memorial Hall, not in cars like last year. As always it will be 11/11 at 11 a.m. and we now know that Mary Jaeger will be our speaker this year. We will not be serving lunch due to Covid-19. As for the Salute for Veterans, it’s 7 p.m. at the Ozark Heritage Arts Center in Leslie. We hope to see you at both celebrations.
