November being a special month for all Elks, was declared a to be a month dedicated to our Veterans. Starting with Flag Day, some local Elks participated in the Corbin Flag Day parade representing Tri-County Elk Lodge 2826. Later, that same day Elks attended a Flag Day ceremony at a local school where they presented a flag to a WWII Veteran during the festivities. And to end the month there was a special dinner held for all Veterans at the lodge with a pinning ceremony for the Vietnam Era Vets by the local USMC Veterans group.
