Seminole State College students and employees planted 5,000 American flags for an honor field on Oct. 24 at the intersection of Highways 9 and 3. The flags were planted in recognition of the upcoming Veteran’s Day holiday and the college’s Military and Veteran Resource Fair on Nov. 7 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The honor field was made possible by a donation from American Legion Post 204 of Seminole. SSC’s Military and Veteran Resource Fair will feature more than 40 local and regional organizations on-site to assist active members of the armed forces, veterans and their dependents with information about services and available benefits. The event is free and open to the public.
