The Junior Leagues of Sarasota and Manatee counties are hosting The Legacy of Valor Celebration Luncheon on Thursday, November 7, 2013, as part of the Legacy of Valor Campaign, which honors the service and sacrifice of veterans and their families.
The keynote speaker at the event will be Keni Thomas, a decorated combat veteran of the elite 75th U.S. Army Ranger Rgt special operations unit. Thomas has worked as a military analyst and author and now spends his time as a singer, songwriter and performer.
This is the first time the two chapters of the Junior League in our community have joined forces…and it means big things for the community!
“We are very excited to be collaborating with the Junior League of Sarasota on this luncheon,” said Lisa Sampson, event volunteer and past president of the Junior League of Manatee County. “This event represents the first partnership for our two leagues and we look forward to building relationships that will echo into the future.”
Tickets for the event are available now.
