Century Adds Veterans Day As Official Town Holiday

September 5, 2013

Beginning this year, the Town of Century will observe Veterans Day as an official holiday, closing town offices and giving employees the day off.

Other than the county landfill and emergency services, Century was the only government or governmental agency in the area that previously did not take the holiday.

The town is also planning a public ceremony for Veterans Day at the town’s Veterans “Wall of Honor” at the Nadine McCaw Park on Highway 29. The exact date and time of the event have not yet been announced. To have a veteran’s name added to the wall of honor, print and complete this form and return it to the Century Town Hall.

    I am a Veteran and would like to say thank you for Honoring our Veterans who have given so much for our rights and freedoms that we enjoy every day. Commerce and government would be much different without them. Bless them all and your city for recognizing them. I Salute you!
