November 11 is Veterans Day, a day we set aside to honor our veterans, active, retired and those who are no longer with us.

One project where we can all participate is this phone-a-thon, designed to raise funds for VFW's unmet needs program. More can be read at this website: www.unmetneeds.com. You can donate through this website or via phone at 866-437-9283.

This weekend, be sure to thank a vet. Buy the vet coffee, pick up their meal tab (all you have to do is tell the server to give you the soldier's bill - they will accommodate), pay any bill. We owe them a tremendous "thank you" for keeping our country free. Donating via the phone-a-thon and/or taking the time to appreciate their service is the least we can do.
