“We have gone through so much during the last two years of the pandemic. The number of Veterans requiring assistance increased and the Veterans Council never stopped working to provide for our veterans. We are ready to gather again in a safe outdoor covered environment to share the good news about the Veterans Council and to continue to assist with the needs of our veterans.” said Jim Romanek, Executive Director of the Veterans Council of Indian River County.
