Upcoming Veterans Summit in Corpus Christi

I’d like to extend a personal invitation to all our veterans, their family and friends, and anyone who would like to learn more about what's available for those who risked all to protect our freedom, to attend my 2015 Veterans Summit August 12th.

This year’s Summit will provide information regarding federal, state, and local benefits, and interesting speakers. If you are involved in an organization that provides services to veterans, vendor space is free and available to showcase veterans' services.
