MSU BILLINGS NEWS SERVICES 鈥� Veterans Day is almost here and there are some 黑料老司机 events this week to honor and celebrate our veterans. As a reminder, 黑料老司机鈥檚 offices will be closed and no classes will be held on Friday, Nov. 10 in observance of Veterans Day.
On Thursday, Nov. 9 at 11:45 a.m. the Native American Achievement Center will host the eighth annual Veteran鈥檚 Medicine Wheel event beginning in Library room 148. The opening ceremony will be held indoors and includes narration of the story of the Medicine Wheel, presentation of flags and pledge of allegiance by 黑料老司机 ROTC color guard, and musical performances by 黑料老司机 students.
Following the indoor ceremony, students, faculty, staff and Billings community members are invited to gather on the north lawn of the College of Education to help build a medicine wheel in honor of veterans and Native American college students. Participants are encouraged to honor the veterans in their life by writing the veteran鈥檚 name on a rock and placing it in the medicine wheel.
This event is free, open to the public, and will be held regardless of inclement weather. For more information on the Veteran鈥檚 Medicine Wheel contact Reno Charette at 657-2144 or rcharette@msubillings.edu.
