Meuser visits Towanda VFW for veterans event
TOWANDA — US Rep. Dan Meuser made an appearance at the Towanda VFW Post 1568 Auxiliary’s annual Veterans Day luncheon this Tuesday, enjoying lunch with veterans and other community members courtesy of the VFW Auxiliary.
“Mr. Meuser has events in the area, and he wanted to do something with veterans. I knew this was scheduled every year, so Doug (McLinko) contacted me, I put the thing into motion, and he gave us a great donation,” said Pete Miller, Bradford County Director of Veterans’ Affairs.
Rather than give a speech as planned, Meuser elected to instead mingle with veterans in attendance over drinks and food, sharing his appreciation and listening to their stories. According to Pete Miller, Meuser sponsored the event with a contribution of $1,800.
