Monticello, NY – Continuing a tradition which began last year, the County of Sullivan and State of New York acknowledge August 6, 2017 as Patriots Day in Sullivan County.
The day honors local veterans of all ages and service branches, whether having served in wartime or peacetime. As noted in a proclamation from Assemblywoman Aileen Gunther, the day will be marked by the Monticello Rotary’s Monster 5K/10K Run and Walk in Monticello. Funds raised will benefit veterans in need through the Sullivan County Veterans Coalition.
For more information or to make a donation, please contact Orshii Boldiis at 845-239-2107 or oboldiis@hotmail.com.
