Once again, our Honor Guard hosts a Show and Shine Car Show to recruit new members AND to raise money for a local organization. A 50 Mile Ruck from Lincoln to Omaha will be held August 21 & 22. Participants will sleep on steps of Capital Building in Lincoln. Saturday evening, they will walk 50 miles from Lincoln to Omaha. Proceeds from all activities will be shared by Moving Veterans Forward and Guitars for Vets Omaha. VFW Post 2503 is happy to be a sponsor of both groups and their work with Veterans who are homeless or suffering from PTSD. Help us to help them.
