On Saturday, November 9th, folks gathered in front of Fillmore City Hall for the Veterans Day Celebration in the Park, also put on by the Veterans Day Celebration Committee. From 4pm to 7pm, the community came out to listen to music, enjoy food and dance the night away. Photo credit Angel Esquivel.

The Veterans Day weekend kicked off to a great start with its Concert in the Park last Saturday, November 9, 2024, from 4pm to 7pm. Everyone had a great time with about 80 attending the concert featuring “Heart and Soul” at City Hall. Many were Fillmore and Piru Vets enjoying the music. The City of Fillmore proclaimed the month of November as “Veterans and Active Military Month” honoring those who served and are serving our country.
