Servicemen and servicewomen from throughout Northampton County are encouraged to attend a veterans' expo hosted by state Rep. Marcia Hahn (R-Northampton).
There is no admission charge for the event, which will take place Friday, June 13, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., at the Bushkill Township Volunteer Fire Company, 155 Firehouse Lane, Nazareth.
"My staff and I put this together in part to say thank you to the men and women who have served our country," Hahn said. "It's also a chance for them to check out programs and services that are available to them."
The list of vendors includes the Allentown office of Pennsylvania Career Link, which can assist with job training and search and local and state offices of veterans' affairs.
The veterans' expo will be held in addition to the monthly outreach to veterans Hahn is continuing.
"Jeff Saunders, a service officer with the American Legion, visits my Nazareth district office the second Wednesday of each month," added Hahn. "This is a great opportunity for veterans to discuss individual problems they may have or obtain information about programs that are available to them."
Anyone interested in meeting with him should make an appointment in advance. The next opportunity to speak with Saunders is this Wednesday, June 11.
Questions about these items or any legislative issue should be directed to Hahn's district office, located at 354 West Moorestown Road, Nazareth, by calling 610-746-2100.
