For the 9th consecutive year, Granville County veterans are invited to a free afternoon of information, entertainment and refreshments courtesy of the Granville County Veterans Affairs Committee.
On Saturday, March 9th at 1 pm the doors of the Granville County Convention and Expo Center will open for the program “I Am the American Flag”, with guest speaker Mark Pace, local historian and keeper of the North Carolina Room at Thornton Library. You’ll learn things about the flag that will surprise you, inspire you, and make you think. Early arrivals will have the opportunity to browse information and resources from veteran-related groups and organizations. The 2pm program will also feature JROTC cadets from J. F. Webb and Granville Southern High Schools, a pinning ceremony and recognition of each of the armed forces. And the day’s finish will be a tasty meal.
Come spend the afternoon with fellow vets to learn, share and be recognized. It’s the Committee’s way to say a sincere “Thank You for Your Service”.
