McDonough Hosting Veterans Appreciation BBQ

Event to thank vets for their service

David McDonough (R,C,I – Merrick) wants to extend an invitation to all veterans throughout the 19th Assembly District to his annual “Veterans Appreciation BBQ”, which he will be hosting along with Assemblyman Rob Walker (R,C,I,WF – Hicksville) and Tom McKevitt (R,C,I – East Meadow). This annual event is one way in which McDonough tries to thank his fellow veterans for protecting our freedom.

“This is a great event and it is my hope that all veterans will stop by so that I can personally thank them for their commitment to our great country,” said Assemblyman McDonough, a veteran of the Coast Guard and Air Force. “At the same time, this is also a great time for my colleagues and me to talk one-on-one with veterans to discuss what issues are affecting them and how New York state can work toward easing their hardships.”

The BBQ will be held at the Hicksville VFW from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, September 12. The Hicksville VFW is located at 320 South Broadway in Hicksville. For those looking for more information or if you would like to attend, please contact Assemblyman McDonough’s office at 516-409-2070.
