Saluting Our Veterans

As we gear up for this year’s Veterans Day on November 11, Shreveport is taking a moment to honor the brave men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces. This annual observance encourages everyone to pause and reflect with deep gratitude. Enjoy the various events happening around the city and take a moment to thank a veteran for their service.

Speaking of which, over the weekend, our community came together to celebrate our veterans in style. The Elks Lodge #2771 hosted a fantastic free fish fry for veterans and first responders, combining good food with good company. It’s such a wonderful way to show appreciation and build community connections!

Community Efforts in Action

This past Sunday, local organizations in Shreveport took on the mission to feed not just the body, but also the mind and soul. Community-driven events aimed to ensure everyone feels supported and nourished. Isn’t it amazing to see so many coming together to uplift one another?

As always, our hardworking first responders were busy over the weekend, too! The Shreveport Fire Department responded swiftly to a fire at an abandoned apartment building on Centenary Boulevard. Thankfully, nobody was reported injured during the incident, but it serves as a reminder of the valuable work our fire fighters do every day.

Stay Aware and Engaged

On a slightly more serious note, Natchitoches police are investigating a tragic homicide that occurred on Lakeview Drive early Sunday morning. Whenever something like this happens close to home, it’s important to stay informed and look out for each other in our neighborhoods.

So whether you’re enjoying the sunny weather, tuning into “Your Money,” honoring our veterans, or engaging in community events, Shreveport is a city that shows immense spirit and resilience. Let’s keep supporting one another and making this a great place to live!
