The Josephine County Republican Party is inviting citizens to a Veterans Day Candlelight Vigil in Grants Pass this weekend.
The Veterans Day event will take place at the GOP headquarters across from the Josephine County Courthouse on Saturday. It starts at 5 p.m..
All are welcome to bring a candle to light to honor those who have served in the United States Armed Forces. Dress warm and bring a chair.
There will be patriotic music and speakers from the veteran community including Retired US Air Force Sergeant Chris Barnett and Pat Allen from the Old Guard Riders who will speak about "Wreaths Across America."
Prayers for veterans will be followed by a roll call of Josephine County's departed veterans. A folded American flag will be presented to veterans by Bryan Welden and there will be free food for veterans during the event.
If you are a military veteran or know of a veteran that they can honor, please contact "JoCoGOP.Communications@gmail.com."
