MAS hosts 18th annual Veterans Day program

Local veterans took their seats at the 18th annual Veterans Day Program hosted by Minnewaska Area Schools last Friday. The event featured music by members of the MAHS band and choir and Major Janelle Johnson was the featured speaker. Historic Pope County Courthouse was illuminated in green last week as part of Operation Green Light for Veterans, a nationwide effort by counties, the National Association of Counties and the National Association of County Veterans Service Officers. The Courthouse was illuminated green to show support for veterans and raise awareness around the resources available at the county, state and federal levels to assist veterans and their families.
