Veterans breakfast is scheduled for Sept. 9
Detective Sharon Baird and veterans Steve and Ken regu- larly attend the breakfast. The Anderson County Sheriff’s Department CID Unit volunteered at August’s breakfast, along with several volunteer citizens, and the Anderson County High School Maverick Dance Team.
The breakfast, hosted by Anderson County citizens, is locally sponsored this month by Alexander Guest House.
The breakfast will be held at the Clinton Community Center, 101 S. Hicks Street, Clinton.
The “chow line” opens at 8:30 a.m., and there will be a brief program at 9 a.m. honoring veterans.
All of the veterans breakfasts recognize and honor local veterans and their families for their service to the United States.
Anderson County residents and community volunteers are working together to make the breakfasts a free monthly event that will allow veterans of all ages and branches to fellowship and share stories.
Veterans are welcome to bring spouses, family, or friends with them.
Many generous donors are also recognized for providing regular monthly door prizes.
The Oct. 14 breakfast is sponsored by Humana — Keith Rogers; Nov. 11 is sponsored by Daniel Forrester Law Office, and free flu shots will be available from Walgreens; Dec. 9 is sponsored by Lt. Gov. Randy McNally, Rep. John Ragan, and Rep. Ed Butler; Jan. 13, 2024, is sponsored by Chancellor Jamie Brooks.
