Leland Veterans of Foreign Wars and Auxiliary are planning a female veteran's luncheon on May 24th at 11:30 am. It will be held at the DREAMS Center for Arts Education on 901 Fanning St, in Wilmington, NC. If daycare is a barrier for you, please let me know. Lunch will be complimentary.
As female veterans, a lot of our experiences are different than men. The purpose of this luncheon is to get together for support and camaraderie. The agenda will be fairly simple:
•A voluntary art project
•Opening welcome comments and introductions
•Comments by Major General Martha Rainville, Retired, USAF
•Comments by Dr Kathy Roth, US Army, Retired, Founder/President At Liberty Connections
•Comments by Cameron Batanides, President, Veterans Creative Arts Program, Wilmington, NC
•Lunch
•Closing comments
We have set up an RSVP button on the Veterans Creative Arts Program website (www.veteranscreativearts.org). Please check out the Veterans Creative Arts Program website. This program provides access to creative arts for veterans, active military and first responders, especially those experiencing the effects of service-related trauma, such as PTSD and traumatic brain injury. All classes are free of charge.
At Liberty Connections (www.AtLibertyConnections.org): Helping veterans, their families, and others who have been affected by trauma and personal sacrifice, feel the healing power of the horse.
Please invite any other female veterans you know.
Hope to see you at the luncheon. Let me know if you have any questions.
