The City of Chandler is primed to pay tribute to its veterans with two upcoming events in November. These events are designed to honor and provide support to those who have dutifully served the nation, according to the city's official website.

Starting the month's commemorations, a Military Appreciation Breakfast is slated for Friday, Nov. 8, from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m. at the Chandler Community Center; the event is free for active and retired military personnel, they are allowed to be accompanied by one guest and while the public can join in, their registration window opens on Nov. 4, and it is a great opportunity for the city's residents to express their gratitude over a shared meal, entertainment and resource information - the breakfast serves also as a small token of the larger debt owed to those who wore the uniform.

The observances continue with a Veterans Day event on Monday, Nov. 11 at the Field of Honor inside Veterans Oasis Park, this commemoration kicks off at 5 p.m. and will feature acknowledgments dedicated to local servicemen and women, in what promises to be a poignant recognition of their contributions to our country's safety and freedom.

Organized by the Military and Veterans Affairs Commission along with the Community Services Department, these events represent Chandler's commitment to its military community; anyone seeking more details about the breakfast or Veterans Day celebration is encouraged to visit the provided link for Chandler Veterans Day, and for those driving to the Field of Honor, the venue details are 4050 E.
