Whether you're a veteran, have a family member who served in the military, or just want to get involved in the veterans community, a free event coming up on Tuesday, April 25 is one you won't want to miss.  It's the 4th annual Veterans Expo - from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM at the Yellowjacket Union Great Room on  the campus of the University of Wisconsin-Superior.

The evening is both a celebration of veterans and a roundup of services available to those who have served.

Along with a TAPS ceremony, speakers will include Douglas County Board Vice Chairmen and incoming Mayor Jim Paine, UWS Chancellor Renee Wacher, and a keynote speech from Daniel Zimmerman - the Wisconsin Department of Veteran Affairs Secretary.

More than 30 local, state, and federal agencies that provide services to veterans will be on hand.  Attendees don't have to just be from Wisconsin or Douglas County;  veterans from Duluth and Minnesota are also encouraged to come.
