In an annual event to honor the service and sacrifice of our nation's veterans, the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 10556 has announced the Veterans Day Program set to take place on Tuesday, November 11, at 9:30 a.m., at Veteran’s Memorial Park. The upcoming gathering promises a lineup of traditional patriotic elements—from a procession of colors to the stirring sounds of patriotic music.
The program, which is open to the public, is made possible by the support of several sponsors including Palm Beach County, Grimes Events and Party Tents, and Professional Concessions Inc. According to a statement obtained by Palm Beach County Newsroom, the event will feature "guest speakers and patriotic music" that are staple aspects of such ceremonies, serving to remind attendees of the collective memory and the individual stories alike.
Located at 9400 W. Palmetto Park Road, the venue sits as an intermediary between Lyons Road and US Hwy 441, west of Boca Raton—a geography that has seen its share of pageants of remembrance and community solidarity. The planning and coordination of the program are a joint effort between the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 10556 and the Palm Beach County Parks and Recreation Department, highlighting the community's involvement in respecting the armed services.
This Veterans Day celebration is yet another manifestation of the deep appreciation held within the community for those who've donned the uniform in defense of the country.
