REDLANDS, Calif. — The Redlands Veterans Committee will host its 9th Annual Veterans Dinner on Tuesday, Nov. 11, offering a free meal, live music and door prizes for local military veterans and their families.
The dinner will take place from 2 to 6 p.m. at Redlands Elks Lodge #583, 663 New York St. The event is open to the public and serves as a community thank-you to those who have served in the armed forces.
Dinner will include grilled chicken breast in a Tuscany cream sauce with sun-dried tomatoes and spinach, wild rice pilaf, California-blend vegetables, and freshly baked rolls. Guests will also enjoy Italian green salad, assorted desserts, and beverages such as strawberry lemonade, cucumber water, and freshly brewed iced tea. The meal is provided by Smart & Final, with live music from The Tomcats and door prizes for attendees.
Organizers said the annual dinner is a way to bring the community together following the city’s Veterans Day Parade and observance earlier in the day. All veterans and their families are welcome, and no reservations are required.
