Veterans Day is THIS Friday

2016 Veterans Day events flyer page jpg Tell a Veteran thank you this Friday. In fact, thank them any day of the year. They have taken time out their lives, their families lives, and given time to serving their country.

Don't forget to attend the Veterans Program at the high school this Friday at 10:00 am and the Elementary at 1:00 pm

Be sure to visit their Facebook page of the GAR Veterans Museum for more photos of the event.

G.A.R. Hall Veterans Museum

If you haven't visited the Museum now it the time. You will be very impressed with what Bonnie Brewer has done. Her passion for our veterans, Elmwood history and genealogy really shine.

Both the high school and elementary have a veterans program on Friday, November 11 and are OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. I try and go every year and am never disappointed. See you there!!
