Rather, I am personally covering the cost because this is just something I thought would\u00a0be nice to do again. In fact, my family looks forward to this annual event. We even have a surprise special guest\u00a0lined up to attend. So, if you\u2019re a Veteran from the Town of Verona, I sure hope to see you and your family at my\u00a0Thank You Dinner!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While reservations are not required, Veterans who plan on attending are asked to contact Fritz at <a href=\"mailto:fritz@fritzscherz.com\">fritz@fritzscherz.com<\/a>\u00a0or <a href=\"tel:%28315%29%20363-3509\">(315) 363-3509<\/a> by Nov. 7\u00a0so we can better plan how much food to have.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fritzscherz.com\/\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en&amp;q=http:\/\/www.fritzscherz.com\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1478575169750000&amp;usg=AFQjCNG-T8u-YobiLDWub9Y12KgNNc1_3w\">www.fritzscherz.com<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/fritzscherz\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en&amp;q=http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/fritzscherz&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1478575169750000&amp;usg=AFQjCNHiYKODO2iSAaq6w03riekpGHReeA\">www.twitter.com\/fritzscherz<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fritzscherz.blogspot.com\/\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en&amp;q=http:\/\/www.fritzscherz.blogspot.com\/&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1478575169750000&amp;usg=AFQjCNGGQvrYPiZacagKigDNISBhUelPHA\">www.fritzscherz.blogspot.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Verona Town Councilman Fred \u201cFritz\u201d Scherz, Jr., will hold his sixth annual Thank You\u00a0Dinner for all town of Verona veterans and their families Friday, Nov. 11,\u00a0from 5 to 6 p.m. at the\u00a0Verona Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 6811 (4928 Spring Rd.) in Verona. \u201cI have fond admiration for veterans and thought this would be a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":37308,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8,21571],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-74957","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-top-story","category-veterans"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74957","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=74957"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74957\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/37308"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=74957"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=74957"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/madisoncountycourier.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=74957"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
