VETERANS DAY

The Village of Orland Park hosted its annual Veterans Day Ceremony on Friday, November 11 at 11 a.m. The ceremony was held at the Orland Park Veterans Memorial, Ara Pace – Place of Peace, at the Orland Park Village Center. “Orland Park’s Veterans Day Ceremony is the community’s way to publicly thank the many veterans who bravely served our country,” said Mayor Dan McLaughlin. “I am glad so many of our veterans and their families were able to join us for the ceremony as we honored the veterans whose names have been added to the village’s memorial.”

McLaughlin read the names and publicly recognized the more than 50 veterans and their families whose names have been added to the village’s memorial since Memorial Day.
