Hometown Heroes Celebration this Saturday

Bring care package items to the event for care packages being sent overseas

From the City of Dublin:

There are twenty-three million veterans residing in the United States – and countless more in our hearts and memories.

In what has now become an annual event, the Dublin Senior Center will be hosting the Hometown Heroes Celebration to honor all our veterans. There will be presentations by local Military and City Officials, a photo wall of veterans and a concert of patriotic music.

There will also be a special exhibit on the Seabees in World War II Dublin. Don’t miss your chance to pay tribute to the dedication, bravery and heroism of our veterans. Light refreshments will be served. Veteran photos for the Wall of Heroes can be dropped off at the Senior Center front desk until 10/22.

Support active duty military by bringing a donation of new white socks, travel size toiletries or individual powdered drink packages for the local branch of S.A.M. (Support All Military), whose mission is to send care packages to those serving overseas.
