Today on the podcast, I’ll share a discussion I recently had with three members of the Springfield Veterans Activities Committee, a non-profit organization, that is currently raising money to fund a monument in Springfield to denote the Global War on Terror. The city has monuments for veterans of WWI, WWII, Korea and Vietnam. The committee is undertaking several up-coming fundraisers for the project. On April 16 from 5 to 8 p.m., there will be an event at Dewey’s Jazz Lounge at 232 Worthington Street in Springfield. The entry donation is $25, with an option to donate $25 more for free passed appetizers and beer. Weather permitting, the event will be on Dewey’s patio. Tickets are available online https://www.eventbrite.com/e/springfield-veterans-activities-committee-fundraiser-tickets-1304787647979?aff=oddtdtcreator or in person at Smokey Joe’s Cigar in downtown Springfield. The second event is a golf tournament on June 7, which you will hear more about in the podcast. If you’re a vet or the family member of a vet or someone who is concerned about vets, I hope you consider attending the event on April 16.
