Samaritan Healthcare & Hospice Presents "Honoring Our Veterans"

Samaritan Healthcare & Hospice, in collaboration with AtlantiCare and the Ocean City Community Center, is proud to present “Honoring Our Vets”– a special ceremony honoring local Veterans at the Ocean City Senior Center. The event will be held on Wednesday, November 5th from 10-11 a.m. at the Ocean City Senior Center.

The event will feature a pinning ceremony for all Veterans who attend, a delicious patriotic dessert and a special performance of the National Anthem, performed by local performer Kristina Coia. Though only in her early twenties, Coia is an author of two books (both published when she was in her teens), motivational speaker (her Shine Through program carries an anti-bullying message to school children and teens), actress, singer and a songwriter.
