The Kiwanis of the Columbia Gorge hosted the annual "Veterans Appreciation Day Breakfast" at Corbett Multi-Purpose Room in Corbett. Although it was a blistery windy and wet day, many attended as we served well over 100 visitors. At least 35 veterans of all the branches of service were in attendance with their families. Free breakfast, raffle prizes were given to the veterans. All 4 high school key clubs were in attendance to help and interact with the veterans as well. (Gresham, Reynolds, Centennial and Corbett) We had the Color Guard by Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW), A ceremonial coin was presented to the Kiwanis Club by VFW as well along with the Missing Man presentation and the Quilts of Valor. Many heartfelt messages were given by the veterans. We also had many other fellow Kiwanians from other clubs join us along with our Kiwanis Lt Govenor 😃 We had a wonderful day!
