VETERANS DAY MEMORIAL SERVICE & BREAKFAST  
With the possibility of inclement weather, it has forced the Veterans Club to move the Friday, November 11th Veterans Day Memorial Service scheduled in Freedom Park into the Starlite Ballroom.  The Ceremony is still scheduled for 0900 hours (9am).  All residents and their guest are invited to attend the ceremony.  After the ceremony, breakfast will be serviced to anyone who purchased tickets in advance.  Sorry no tickets will be sold at the ceremony.
Salute Our Veterans Weekend is designed to celebrate Veterans and their families. We raise money for a select charity to help improve the lives of the many selfless men and women who bravely served our Nation.
