Senator Chris Gebhard and Representative Jamie Barton are organizing a veterans appreciation lunch for the 48th Senatorial District. The event is scheduled for Saturday, November 9, at Cabela’s in Hamburg. Check-in will start at 11:30 a.m., followed by lunch and a program beginning at noon.
“There’s a certain enthusiasm in meeting with and talking to the people who embody the principles upon which our great country was founded,” said Representative Barton. “Sharing a meal and enjoying that fellowship is a healthy way to stay connected to these heroes.”
Senator Gebhard expressed his gratitude towards veterans, stating, “The men and women who have defended the American ideals we hold dear have influenced the history of the country, ensuring that we can continue to enjoy our many freedoms. I look forward to personally thanking the veterans who are able to attend the lunch we are hosting.”
Col. Frank Ryan, a former state representative and Iraq War veteran, will serve as the keynote speaker for this event.
Veterans attending may bring one guest. Due to limited space, an RSVP is required by contacting Senator Gebhard’s district office via phone or online registration.
