Come see us at Operation Honor Rural Salute at the Gettysburg Rec Park today until 6pm! 🇺🇸
Looking for something to do with the kids that's actually worth leaving the house for? This is it.
Operation Honor: Rural Salute® is coming to PA and we're throwing a free, family-friendly community day built for veterans, military families, and the neighbors who love them. Bring the whole crew!
We're talking food trucks, live music, craft vendors, petting zoo, local small businesses, and plenty of activities to keep the kids happy while the adults actually get to have a real conversation. Come as you are. Stay as long as you want.
And yes, we're also bringing real support for veterans on-site: healthcare navigation, VA enrollment, benefits guidance, mental health resources, education, employment and more. Because a good community day takes care of the whole family. (See the vendor list below)
Who's invited?
Veterans from every era and branch
Active Duty, Guard and Reservists
Military families, spouses, and caregivers
Kids, grandkids, and the whole family
Rural neighbors who show up for their community
If you love a veteran or care about this community, you belong here. This one's for all of you.
Free to attend. No dress code. No agenda. Just a really good day.
