Veterans, military families, and anyone who cares about veterans’ issues are invited to attend the 11th Annual Veterans Summit at Northern Vermont University’s Lyndon Campus in Lyndonville, Vt.
We are honored to present artist Robert Bellows of Warrior Storyfield as our keynote speaker. Robert is working with a diverse group of veterans and civilians to create a large-scale art project that addresses the question, “What does it take for a veteran to come home?” Their shared experiences, camaraderie, and even conflicts have inspired the creation of three meaningful sculptures: a dragon, a phoenix, and the space in between. This extraordinary story holds deep significance for veterans and others alike. Find out more.
More than 50+ veteran service organizations will staff information tables at this event, offering a one-stop shop for services, clubs, and resources.
Complimentary dinner is included for pre-registered attendees.
Great things happen at the summit because veterans, their family members, and stakeholders get together to share valuable information and support one another. The exhibitors provide a wide array of services and resources. The speakers and presenters bring fresh insights, expertise, and inspiration. The Summit is a great place to meet old friends, make new friends, and learn about all of the resources and opportunities available to veterans.
