City of Sandy Springs Veteran's Day Celebration

The Rotary Club of Sandy Springs volunteered during the City of Sandy Springs' annual Veterans Day commemorative event. The club has volunteered for the past 6 years. The City of Sandy Springs hosted this annual Veterans Day Tribute on Friday, November 11, 2016 beginning at 11:30 a.m. to honor those who serve and served our country. The event takes place at the Veteran’s Memorial located at the Concourse Corporate Center next to the Queen Building (Building Five). Former WSB News Anchor John Pruitt was the event's emcee. Sandy Springs resident and Purple Heart recipient, CW05 Edwin E. Harman, III, USMC was the keynote speaker.

Rotarians distribute programs, assist guests and enjoy the recognition of the cities veterans including our own WWII Veterans Milton Kassel and James Pascal pictured below. This is a collaborative event sponsored by the City of Sandy Springs and supported by many civic organizations including the Sandy Springs Society and the Rotary Club of Sandy Springs.
