The City of Olean invites all residents, families, Veterans and members of the surrounding community to join us for a Veterans Day Ceremony honoring the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve our nation.
The ceremony will take place on Wednesday, Nov. 11, at 11 a.m. at War Veterans Park, located at 551 E. State St.
“Behind every uniform is a person, a family and a story of commitment, courage and sacrifice,” said Mayor Amy B. Sherburne. “Many left their homes and loved ones to serve something greater than themselves, enduring hardships and challenges that deserve our deepest respect and gratitude.”
The mayor said, “Veterans Day reminds us that the freedoms we enjoy were protected by the dedication and sacrifices of those who served. We must continue to honor their contributions, support our veterans, and ensure future generations understand the importance of their service.”
Sherburne added: “The City of Olean is proud to recognize our veterans, past and present and invites the community to come together in appreciation and remembrance.
“We are forever grateful. Lest We Forget.”
