HARTWELL AMERICAN LEGION POST 109 SPONSORING TWO VETERANS DAY EVENTS

Two special ceremonies will be taking place this week in Hart County in honor of our veterans.

On Thursday, Veterans Day, there will be a special ceremony to rename a portion of Highway 29 between Hartwell and Royston Veterans Memorial Highway.

The Hartwell Post 109 of the American Legion will host the event Thursday afternoon, which will be held at 2p at Tabernacle Baptist Church across from Nancy Hart Cemetery in Hartwell.

State Representative Alan Powell will be the guest speaker.  Powell sponsored House Resolution 285 which passed this past legislative session.

Then on Friday, Post 109 will host a similar event at the intersection of Veterans Memorial Highway and Golf Course Road.  That intersection will be renamed the American Legion Post 109 Intersection.

The public, especially veterans, are invited to attend both ceremonies this week.
