Local veterans are invited to ‘mangia’ Italian-style at our 2nd annual ‘Sock It to a Vet’ Day, which will be held on Veterans Day, Friday, November 11 at The Good Ol’ Days House, located at 914 Broad Ave. in North Belle Vernon.
A favorite Italian family tradition will be served from noon to 6 p.m. that will include, of course, spaghetti and meatballs! It’s the same recipe plus a little friendship, love and laughter! This is just one way to express our thanks to the men and women who have made sacrifices in order to protect our freedoms and who continue to protect this nation today. We are asking all veterans from all wars to attend.
Guests are also invited to join us with new sock donations for men and women that will be collected and donated to the veterans homeless shelter in Washington and distributed to veterans in our local hospitals. Last year we collected 1,111 pairs of socks on 11/11!
Many thanks to all who supported us last year; we hope you will remember us this year with your generous donations and notes of support that were attached to many socks all for our beloved veterans!
