Join in this community celebration honoring veterans and their families as the Southshore Concert Band, led by Dale Reuss with emcee Jeff Whitaker and Lest We Forget present their annual Veterans Day Patriotic Concert on Sunday, November 10th at 2:00 pm at Lake Michigan College Mendel Center in Benton Harbor. This is a free event.
The 78 members of the Southshore Band will be featuring traditional patriotic songs and salutes for the branches of the service. The theme for the concert, LIBERTY, is designed to musically assert our American ideals through the performance by the Southshore Concert Band, including instrumental, vocal and visual selections. The men and women who have sacrificed to protect and defend our American ideals as members of the United States military forces will be remembered and honored throughout the program. A Tribute to Lest We Forget founder, COL Donald Alsbro, who passed away in February will be followed by remembering all Lest We Forget members who have passed on by showing their photographs during the singing of "The Mansions of the Lord."
Book of Heroes, the 7th Volume of a collection of Veteran Stories, will debut and many of those Veterans will be on hand to autograph your copy starting at noon.
Lest We Forget will honor all veterans by taking their photo starting at 1 pm and continuing until 1:45 pm. Complimentary photos will be mailed to the veterans.
