It’s become tradition for veterans from across Illinois to gather in Coal City each September. Unfortunately this year’s gathering to recognize military service men and women was postponed.
Operation Firm Handshake was set to host its 8th annual Illinois Veterans Picnic on Sept. 12, but with the on-going pandemic, organizers decided it was in the best interest of attendees to put a temporary hold on the popular picnic.
