The Apple n' Pork Festival is a great opportunity to support DeWitt County non-profits and their missions.

Among those in our community are the Clinton Am Vets who use their space on Center Street to continue their mission of supporting veterans. Commander Ed Beck says they have some great people doing great things.

According to Beck, they support various funds and efforts as well as a scholarship.

For Beck and the AmVets, it is their mission to support veterans and help them get through some tough times. He adds that looks like the gatherings they have almost every day at the post as well as other efforts to support the community of veterans.

If you are a veteran interested in getting involved in the AmVets, stop by one of their meetings for more information or check out the post most mornings where veterans gather for coffee.
