The WFEA Morning Update is hitting the road on Friday, September 18th, broadcasting live from 10am to noon at the 22nd Annual NH Veteran Stand Down, presented by Harbor Care.

We’ll be set up at Eversource Energy Park (780 N Commercial Street, Manchester) for one of the biggest days of the year for New Hampshire veterans. More than 50 resource providers will be on-site offering everything from employment help and medical care to housing support, benefits assistance, food, and clothing. There’s free breakfast and lunch, food trucks, live music, and a whole lot of community in one place.

The Stand Down is free and open to all veterans and their families. No registration required, though veterans can preregister to help Harbor Care’s team prepare ahead of time.

Swing by and say hi while we’re broadcasting live. Whether you’re a veteran looking for resources, a family member, or just someone who wants to support the men and women who served, this is a great way to spend part of your Friday morning.
