City Of WeHo Celebrates Veterans Day 2020

The City of West Hollywood will honor veterans and active members of the United States Armed Forces during a virtual presentation of its annual Veterans Day ceremony on Wednesday, November 11, 2020 at 11 a.m. The ceremony will take place on the City of West Hollywood’s WeHoTV YouTube channel. 

Community members are invited to join City officials and City staff members in honoring local veterans. Representatives from local veterans’ organizations will be in attendance and United States Navy Lieutenant Shawn Horvath will speak.

During the program, which this year features the theme, Opportunity, members of the West Hollywood City Council will recognize those who have served in the United States Armed Forces. The event will feature the Pledge of Allegiance, a bugler playing Taps, and a moment of silence followed by The Star-Spangled Banner, the national anthem of the United States.

The Sal Guarriello Veterans’ Memorial, located on the corner of Santa Monica Boulevard and Holloway Drive, will be decorated with wreaths and American flags. The City welcomes the community to visit the memorial to pay their respects. 

While visiting, please remember to practice social distancing and wear a face covering. Face coverings are mandatory while in public in the City of West Hollywood.
