Veterans Day, Wednesday, Nov.11, is a day to celebrate military veterans who have served their country honorably during war or peacetime. As it is a federal holiday (and a state holiday in Texas), all non-essential federal government offices will be closed including post offices; most banks will be closed as well as they fall under the Federal Reserve. State of Texas offices will be closed; municipalities vary.

In Richardson, all municipal offices and services will operate on a regular schedule.  

The Richardson Senior Center will honor veterans with concert from the Upswing Jazz Orchestra. 

Date: Monday, Nov. 9
Time: 1:30 p.m.
Location: Richardson Senior Center, 820 W. Arapaho Rd.
Admission: Free, registration required
Additional details: Call 972-744-7800 to register and for more information

The City of Richardson also recognizes veterans through its year-round Veterans Partnership Initiative (VPI), a page on the City’s website that offers links to information about opportunities in various areas including education, employment, health and housing as well as information about programs and events geared toward veterans.
