Join us in honoring our veterans on Wednesday, November 11!

There will be a Veterans Assembly at the Sikeston Field House the morning of Nov. 11th. Please arrive at the Sikeston Field House at 8:45 a.m. to allow time for security screening before the Veterans Day Assembly begins at approximately 9:00 a.m.

Our Veterans Honor Banner Ceremony will follow immediately afterward at Veterans Park, at the corner of Linn and Campanella Streets, at approximately 10:15 a.m. We’ll present the retiring banners to veterans and their families and recognize the veterans featured on the new banners.

Both programs are open to the community. We invite everyone to join us as we recognize and thank our veterans for their service!
