Bartlett Veterans Dinner on Friday
Seats are still available for the Bartlett Volunteer Fire Association’s fifth annual Veterans Memorial Dinner on Friday, May 31.
This event is a way to remember fallen veterans and also say thank you to Bartlett veterans. It begins at 6:30 p.m. at the Bartlett Fire Barn, 218 S. Main St. We are pleased to have Wayne Messmer with us to sing the national anthem.
The evening’s presentation will be made by Honor Flight Chicago. Honor Flight Chicago was founded to recognize our Veterans — most specifically our WWII Veterans — with a day of honor, remembrance and celebration from a proud and grateful nation.
Members of Bartlett VFW Post 11018 and American Legion Post 1212 are invited each year as guests of the association. This year we are happy to extend an invitation to Bartlett veterans who are not members of these veteran organizations.
To register call (630) 830-4018 or email Bob Bucaro at bucaror@bartlettvolunteerfiredept.com.
The Bartlett Volunteer Fire Association has been meeting the needs of the community for over 110 years — first as a fire department assisting Bartlett residents during an emergency and more recently as a charitable and civic organization. This group of dedicated men and women are an important part of our community.
