The Lake Chelan Valley provides several opportunities to honor our Veterans each year.

In Manson, the Manson American Legion holds a Veteran’s Day Celebration Ceremony at 11:00 a.m. on Monday, November 11, at American Legion Park.

The Chelan VFW will hold its annual Veterans Day Parade on Monday, November 11, at 11 a.m. on East Woodin Ave. Remembering all who served, the parade is held “on the 11th hour, of the 11th day of the 11th month”.

Immediately following the parade, Chelan District 7 Firefighters Association and Chelan Firefighters Local 4816 will prepare and serve free hamburgers and hot dogs to all Veterans, currently serving Military Personnel and their immediate families. The luncheon is held at the fire station: 232 E. Wapato Ave. The public is also invited – a $5 donation is suggested, but not required. All funds raised are donated back to the local Chelan VFW Post 6853.
