Those who have served our country and continue to serve have some incredible stories to tell. Join us for the sharing of stories from Veterans and active military members as a way to learn and to honor their service. Rob Spohr, who was deployed to Iraq in 2004 and later served in the NY National Guard, will be sharing his experiences as the Program Assistant for Songwriting with Soldiers. Local author and Iraqi Veteran, Ryan Smithson, will speak about his time in the Army Corps of Engineers and about his passion for helping other Veterans tell their story.
