Celebrating the collective change made by the men and women who can call themselves veterans is the goal for the annual Veterans’ Breakfast hosted by the Fort Wayne Parks and Recreation Community Center. On Friday, November 8, starting at 9:30 a.m., the center will welcome veterans and their guests for a morning filled with food, fun and gratitude. The Veterans' Breakfast & Bingo event is all about showing appreciation to the men and women who have served in the military. The best part? It's completely free for veterans, and each veteran can bring one guest to share in the experience.
The event kicks off with a delicious breakfast. Veterans and their guests can enjoy a hearty meal while they sit back and enjoy live music performed by the Shepherd’s Brass Quintet. The uplifting tunes will set a nice tone for the morning, adding to the feeling of celebration. There will also be a special presentation of the flags, paying tribute to the service of all veterans. This moment is sure to be a meaningful part of the day, recognizing the commitment and sacrifices made by so many.
After breakfast, the fun continues with a lively game of Bingo. Veterans and their guests can take part in the game and even win some great prizes. Local businesses have donated gift cards and other items, making the prizes even more exciting. Whether you’re a seasoned Bingo player or just looking to try something new, this part of the event promises to bring smiles and a bit of friendly competition.
To make sure there’s enough room for everyone, the Community Center asks that you call ahead to reserve a seat. You can do this by calling 427-6460 by October 27. Don’t miss out on this chance to connect with fellow veterans, enjoy a meal, listen to live music and have some fun with Bingo.
Veterans’ Breakfast & Bingo is more than just an event – it’s a way for the community to come together and show appreciation for those who have given so much for their country. Whether you're a veteran yourself or accompanying a loved one who has served, this event offers a wonderful opportunity to relax, enjoy the day and maybe even take home a prize!
