The UCA Veterans Day Committee, the UCA Staff Senate, the UCA Faculty Senate, and the UCA Military Science/ROTC program are pleased to invite local military veterans to a Veterans Appreciation Luncheon tomorrow from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Brewer-Hegeman Conference Center.
Dr. Jerry Clark, a wounded-in-action Army Vietnam Veteran from the Veterans Center in Little Rock, will make a brief presentation at noon. A video tribute will be screened at 11:30 a.m. and again at 1 p.m. It will also play throughout the day on the UCA Daktronics screen.
The luncheon is free, but tickets are required. Any veteran who wishes to attend should contact a member of the Veterans Day Committee, which includes Melanie Epperson, Brooks Walthall, Reginia Thomas, Jean-Claude Martin, MSG Calvin Bell, or Cadet Leon Parham.
UCA also will hold a Veterans Day ceremony at the flag pole in front of Old Main during X-period (1:40 to 2:30 p.m.). The first 100 people to arrive at the flag pole for the ceremony will receive a Service Unity lapel pin to wear in support of our military and their families.
