NORWICH UNIVERSITY AND THE NU CLUB OF THE UPPER VALLEY ANNOUNCE A SPECIAL EVENT FOR OUR AREA'S VETERANS
Join us as we put our Norwich values into action and support the efforts of the White River Junction Vet Center. This activity is part of Norwich's first ever "National Day of Service" - we will be joining with Norwich Clubs from around the country to make a difference in our local communities. Be there with us to spend some time with fellow alumni and friends and give back to our area's veterans.
Saturday, November 7, 2009 9:30 am - 1:30 pm Veterans Memorial Park Railroad Row White River Jct, VT
**Veterans - to learn more about this day and the Mobile Vet Center click here**
What we will be doing: We will be providing refreshments, company and rides to our area veterans as they await the opportunity to meet with the Vet Center counselors in the MVC (Mobile Vet Center). It will be our honor to give some time back to our nation's veterans - the men and women who have given so much for our country - and to support the efforts of the WRJ Vet Center. All alumni, students, parents and friends - anyone with a Norwich connection - are invited to join us.
 What's needed: We need approximately a dozen alumni volunteers to join us on Saturday, November 7. We will feed the vets with food generously donated by David Briggs '68 and provide them with company, support and conversation while they await their turn in the MVC. Help is also needed to set up tables and chairs and clean-up afterwards and to give rides to veterans unable to find transportation to the event.
Bring your kids along to teach them about Norwich values and giving back!
