Veterans Day Observance

Post by AMVETS POST 46 »

I didn't check the calendar and notice that Veterans Day this year is on a Sunday so I gave the wrong information to the Northern Islander. We will be observing it on Monday November 12th at 11:00 AM at the Veterans Memorial Park. In case of rain it will be held at the St. James Fire Department.

Please join us.

I'll fire a cannon salute on both days at 11:00am. The veterans continue to serve through out life and do many good things over there on BI. I might start a Post over here on Whiskey Island.

Thanks to all those who came out today to honor the veterans of this great county. Thanks also the Beaver Island school for their "Operation American Soldier" program. Here is the information on this forum.
