This year, the Jacksonville Chamber of Commerce in cooperation with Pioneer Village, invite the community to thank our veterans at a very special Veterans Day Celebration. The event is on November 11, 2016 at 11:00am and will last approximately 45 minutes. This year, Pioneer Village has graciously offered to hold the event indoors at the Bistro restaurant located at Pioneer Village, at 805 N. 5th Street in Jacksonville. The program will include the presentation of colors and the Pledge of Allegiance, along with a presentation of pins and cards by the Boy Scouts to all attending veterans. Additionally, there will be a brief address by Jacksonville Mayor Paul Becker and a benediction by Pastor Larry Jung, of Jacksonville Presbyterian Church. All are welcome to join in honoring our veterans at this special event, which will also offer light refreshments and music.
