Veterans Day in Bozeman Montana

Bozeman Honors Fallen Veterans

Veterans here find that Bozeman makes them feel warm and welcome, both at the university and in the community. On Friday, volunteers will gather at MSU to read the 6200 names of the troops that have died in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq since 2001. Names will be read from 9 am until 5pm with a moment of silence observed at noon and will be streaming on Montana State Universities’ website. If you would like to participate by reading for 15 minutes, call994-6902 to volunteer.

Some other activities happening over the weekend are:

The student veterans club will be hosting its first 5k and
10k run, register at 7 am on the north side of the sub.

    American Legion will be serving breakfast from 7 am to
   9:30 am and a memorial service at Sunset Hills Cemetery
    between 11 and 11:30 am.

The Public Library will hold a flag dedication ceremony at
4:30 pm.

    And we here at Bozeman Montana Real Estate will be
   offering to pay for the appraisals for any veterans buying
   homes with us this month!

A sincere thank you goes out to anyone who has ever served to protect our way of life. Your dedication and sacrifice is greatly appreciated within our office and our homes!
