The American Legion Post 105 will host a Veterans Day ceremony this Saturday, November 11, starting at 10:30 a.m. with a pre-event offering of coffee and donuts.
The official program begins with a moment of silence at 11 a.m. to honor the end of World War I, followed by a ceremony featuring U.S. Congress member Kevin Mullin as the keynote speaker.
State and local officials, including State Sen. Josh Becker, assembly woman Diane Papan and the Redwood City council members will join in paying tribute to veterans from all military branches. The Newark Wind Symphony will perform the Armed Forces Medley, and the Marine Corps League will provide free hotdogs post-ceremony.
A car show and military vehicle display on Broadway Street, along with a Toys for Tots donation bin, are also part of the day's activities. Street closures around Courthouse Square are expected, with public parking available on adjacent streets.
The event is open to the public, with more details available through the American Legion Post 105.
