Members of Gallatin Post 14,
It has been a busy November with all the Veterans Day events going on locally. There are still a few coming up.
Gallatin High School will hold a Veterans Day Concert on Sunday, November 17, 2024 at 2:30PM. The High School is located at 4455 Annie St.
We are joining VVA #788 and sponsoring The Mount Hyalite Chapter, Daughters of the American Revolution and their Wreaths Across America project. We donated 30 wreaths to be placed at Sunset Hills Cemetery on December 14, 2024.
We are signing up volunteers for the Salvation Army Red Kettle Bell Ringing. We will be working at Smith’s on 19th on Fridays starting 11/29. We are also looking for volunteers to assist VVA #788 with manning the Rosauers location from 4:00PM – 6:00PM on Fridays. Please see the link below with the sign up information, If you do not want to go through the sign up genius, please email me directly at [email protected] and I will get you on the list.

Hope and the Holidays is also signing up volunteers to assist with their Christmas mission of helping families with food and gift support. A priority from Hope & The Holidays to our members at Post 14 will be unloading the moving truck at the Nissan building at JC Billion at 10am on 11/30. More information is available on the sign up links below. In 2023 this program helped over 1400 children and 600 families. That takes a lot of volunteers!
