Combined Veterans Luncheon & Expo, will be in its FOURTH year. This year we have a potential list of 100 exhibitors, all organizations and companies that help veterans and the community. We are also adding a job fair to assist employment-seeking veterans. To receive a FREE meal, served by Mission BBQ, veterans must present proof of Service such as a VA ID card, current VSO Membership card, a DD 214 with appropriate State ID, or any identification that proves he or she is a veteran.
Non-veterans pay $15 for their meal. Every meal bought pays for a veteran’s meal as well.
If you can assist us with a financial donation we can feed more veterans. A donation of $50.00 will help us feed 8-10 veterans. A donation of $100.00 will help feed 16-20 veterans, etc.
As a way to thank our sponsors, a large sponsor banner will be displayed at the event. You can display your or your company’s information for all the attendees to see those who helped make the event successful.
