GROVETON — The staff and students of Groveton High School continued their tradition, serving full meals to any and all veterans in honor of Veterans Day.

About 350 veterans and family members came for meals of barbecue brisket, sausage and ribs, and all the trimmings on Friday.

Numerous businesses from the area contributed to the event, including Citizens State Bank of Groveton, Coca-Cola Bottling Co., Country Equipment Sales, Dean Due Logging, Phillips Due Foundation, Groveton Booster Club, Hannah Equipment, Huff Welding, McClain’s Hardware, Scoggins Tires, Carroll Sylvester CPA, Trinity County Farm Bureau and Walmart.

Superintendent Jim Dillard said the event teaches students the value of giving back, as well as honoring military veterans.
