On Monday, November 11, 2019, the City of Vernon, Florida will commemorate Veteran’s Day at the Vernon Community Center, adjacent to Vernon City Hall, at 1:30PM.
The event will feature speakers and refreshments, and will serve to honor our military veterans on this patriotic occasion.
At the same time will be held a dedication of the Shady Grove Ball Fields, honoring past baseball figures from the Vernon Community.
‘This is long past due’, said City Council Chair Joey Brock, ‘and there are several community leaders, who were in large part responsible for shaping the lives of many of our young citizens on those ball fields over many years, to whom we will dedicate the Shady Grove ball fields on November 11’.
‘The ceremonies are open to the public and all are invited’, said Mayor Laura Olene Brewer, ‘and we are proud to be celebrating this occasion’.
