Memorial Day weekend is a time for family, friends, fun, REMEMBRANCE AND REFLECTION. REFLECT on those that didn't make it home. The ones that signed a blank check to our country up to and including their lives and proved they meant it. This weekend, while you enjoy the incredible freedoms and joys our country has to offer, please offer up a moment of gratitude to those that didn't come home; the ones through the centuries that gave all and secured our ability to enjoy such a beautiful weekend. REMEMBER. MAY YOU NEVER FORGET. 🇺🇸🫡❤️💙🤍

If you are a veteran-owned business in Charlotte County, this is your opportunity to connect, grow, and support fellow veterans in business.

The Charlotte County Veterans Council is launching a new networking group that meets the 1st and 3rd Monday (TONIGHT) of every month at 6:30 PM at Charlie Foxtrot Brewing.

The goal is simple — build a strong network of veteran-owned businesses that can rely on, refer, and support one another. As this group grows, the plan is to create a community directory so residents can easily find and do business with trusted veteran-owned companies across a wide range of trades and services.

This is the ground floor, and we need YOU. We RELY ON YOU to help build the foundation.

Come out, introduce your business, make connections, and help launch something meaningful for the veteran community in Charlotte County. Together, we can strengthen our businesses while continuing to serve our community.

Support veterans. Support local. Support each other. See public relations info below!
