It would mean a lot to Frank Panepento if you would come out to the VA Center in Batavia at 1 p.m. on Sunday to celebrate Flag Day with our veterans.
It will mean a lot to him because it means a lot to the veterans living at the center.
Panepento helped organize the event, which will include a motorcycle procession from Stan's Harley-Davidson and a presentation by students from Batavia Middle School, who wrote essays on what the flag means to them.
The BMS Art Department also created flags for the veterans.
"For the residents in the hospital, just to know that someone cares about them is huge," Panepento said.
St. Joe's Brass Ensemble, which Penepento leads, will also play.
