About Us

A DAY TO BENEFIT VETERANS

Half of our 21 million veterans have either visible or invisible wounds of war, from combat wounds to depression. We want to honor them by working hard to raise funds to support local programs that actually do help them. 100 % of proceeds will be going to local Veterans.​ By contributing towards A Day to Benefit Veterans, you will be helping immeasurably, receiving free advertising and positive public relations in the community. Any amount you're willing to donate is greatly appreciated but we hope you will be joining us on September 17, 2023, 12:00pm-6:00pm at the Hudson Elks Pavilion for a great day of local bands, food, silent auctions, raffles, cash prizes, and kids activities.
