Are you a veteran, active duty service member or veteran’s spouse or family member? If yes, then please let the Rotary Club and the High School Rotary Interact Club thank you for your dedication and service at the 20th anniversary of the annual Rotary Club Veterans Appreciation Dinner held this year on Thursday, Nov 13, at 6 p.m. at the Rotary Club in Boothbay Harbor. It is a fun and totally free evening dedicated to you, our country's veterans, active duty service members and family.

We sent out invitations last week, but if we missed you, just call 207-619-1417 and leave your name and address. We will mail you an invitation right away. The invitation will include a return postcard that will help us (and mostly our chef) know how many people to plan for. Please return the postcard as soon as possible. You are invited to wear your military service insignia.

We don't have a speaker or program organized at this time. The main purpose of the dinner is to thank you and have fun together. We are ready for my favorite part: singing each military service anthem together. It's very moving and makes me so proud of you, our service members and their families and this amazing country.
