On Nov. 8, there will be a special prayer for veterans during the Chapel hour at 11 a.m. Yellow ribbons in remembrance of those who served will be distributed throughout the week.
A wreath-laying ceremony will highlight the week of activities on Friday, Nov. 9. The ceremony will be held at the flagpole in front of Lehr Memorial and is open to the public. Following the ceremony, refreshments will be served to those in attendance.
Groups supporting the week include members of the Ohio Northern Veterans Organization, as well as members of ONU admissions, academic departments and staff members. This marks the fourth year that ONU has set aside time to reflect on and honor America’s men and women in uniform, and the observances are designed to raise awareness in the ONU community.
