Heroes at Home has initiated two new veterans groups this fall to help our servicemen and women and their families connect.
One is a Veterans Dinner Group on the first Thursday of each month at the American Legion, 150 Main Street, Hoosick Falls. The evening includes a free dinner plus a guest speaker or workshop on topics that are of interest to the military community. The first event will be held on Thursday, November 6, from 5 to 7 pm with a workshop entitled “Income, Savings and Assets for the Future.” This is being sponsored by the Commission on Economic Opportunity.
If you’d like to be kept informed of upcoming dinner meetings or presentation topics or request a presentation on a specific subject, email Amy Molloy at amy.molloy@heroesathomerensco.com.
All veterans, active duty, and their families are welcome to attend.
Second is a Veterans Walking Group at the HAYC3 Armory. All veterans and spouses are invited to join other vets from 9 to 10 am in the HAYC3 Armory to get in a walk and some conversation. This will not only be good physically, but it will also be a great way to connect with those you know and perhaps even meet some you haven’t rubbed elbows with before.
For more information on either of these programs, contact John Holmes at Heroes at Home at 545-6781 or john.holmes@heroesathomerensco.com.
