Etheridge Hosts Annual Veterans Breakfast

RALEIGH - U.S. Rep. Bob Etheridge (D-Lillington) is honored to invite veterans and their spouses or guests to the annual Congressional Veterans Breakfast on Tuesday, November 9th at the Jim Graham Building on the State Fairgrounds from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m.

"Our veterans fought to protect our freedom and our values," Etheridge said. "This is an opportunity to honor the contributions of our veterans and thank them for their service. With our nation facing continued fighting overseas, it is more important than ever for us to keep our veterans - past, present and future - in our thoughts and prayers."

Please make checks payable to Veterans Breakfast for $8.00 per meal and mail with the return slip below to Congressman Bob Etheridge, 225 Hillsborough Street, Suite 490, Raleigh, NC 27603. To permit an accurate meal count and to prevent confusion on the morning of the event, we ask that you have your checks to the Raleigh office no later than Tuesday, November 2, 2004.

If you have questions about the breakfast or about any veterans' related matter, please contact Debbie Privette in Etheridge's Raleigh office at 1-888-262-6202.
