The 6th Annual BoatRides4Vets will take place on Saturday, August 17 (9 to 5) at the WindRiver marina on Rt. 321 just outside Lenoir City. Veterans and active military and their families will be able to enjoy a free day on nearby lakes.
Tellico Village VFW post member JJ Jorgensen said veterans come from all over East Tennessee every year for this chance to enjoy the water on a hot day. Some spend all day on a boat while others enjoy the morning, the afternoon or just an hour to two. Come out and join them!
