HERRIN (WSIL) â€� The Herrin American Legion honored veterans today with a free meal.Â
The Legion held its 2nd Annual Hog Roast.
Organizer Jennifer McIntosh says its just a fun way to honor veterans. "We have fun here it’s a lot of camaraderie between the men, the women and the sons and as you see we’re filled here everybody loves it here," said McIntosh.
The roast also included a silent auction and bake sale. All proceeds benefit the Lady’s Auxiliary for the Fall Thanksgiving Food Giveaway and Christmas Children’s Party.
