About 100 veterans and auxiliary members from northern Minnesota and Fort Frances are gathering in International Falls this weekend.
The local Veteran of Foreign Wars post is hosting District Loyalty Days. Commander of District 8 Terry Randolph says it coincides with similar events across the country.
"It's to show patriotism and loyalty to the United States," says Randolph. "and a gathering of VFW members so they can talk about things from the past year and upcoming events we might want to do in the coming year."
Among the events planned include a flag disposal ceremony to be held Saturday at 1:00 p.m. behind the VFW Post on 3rd Avenue.
The public is welcome to attend.
