Special Veterans Day events planned on all three NGTC campuses in Clarkesville, Toccoa and Blairsville
NGTC’s Student Government Association (SGA) has partnered with the NGTC Foundation to host a special event this Veterans Day to honor all students, staff and community members who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces.
All Veterans are invited to attend a breakfast in their honor on Thursday, November 10, from 9:30 to 10 am in the Ramsay-Hunter Dining Hall Annex on the Clarkesville Campus. In addition to the free breakfast, as a token of NGTC’s appreciation for their service, all veterans in attendance will receive a U.S. Flag lapel pin.
At 10 am, following the Veterans-only breakfast, the public is invited to join NGTC for a special program on the Clarkesville Campus Quad. Guest speaker, Erika Rayford, will lead the ceremony which will include Presenting of the Colors, Pledge of Allegiance, The Star-Spangled Banner, and the reading of a poem by a veteran.
Events are also planned for NGTC’s Currahee and Blairsville campuses on Nov. 10. The Currahee Campus will host a Veterans Coffee at 9:30 am, and the Blairsville Campus will have cake and punch in the Great Hall from noon until 2 pm. All veterans attending will receive a flag lapel pin.
