23rd Anniversary: Freedom Monument Veterans Memorial Ceremony

The Santa Maria Valley Chamber of Commerce and the City of Santa Maria welcome you to a special Veterans Day event at the Freedom Monument Veterans Memorial.

This year, local Veteran Associations will be recognized with the dedication of a new Veteran Associations Plaque. The Veterans Day ceremony will honor all veterans who have served and will pay special tribute to the 113 Santa Maria Valley Veterans who died in conflicts from World War I through the latest wars on terrorism. They are listed on plaques and memorials throughout the Freedom Monument area.

A Free Breakfast will be provided by Kiwanis Club of Santa Maria and will be served from 10:00 am – 10:45 am. The Veterans Day event will begin at 11:00 am. Everyone is invited and encouraged to join us to honor our veterans!

Please join for this exceptional and uplifting Veterans Day ceremony. The Freedom Monument is located at 600 S. McClelland in front of the Abel Maldonado Community Youth Center in Santa Maria.
