Salute to Veterans dinner returns to St. Clair
American Legion Post 382 will honor local veterans with complimentary meals during its annual Salute to Veterans fish dinner in St. Clair on Nov. 20. The event will run from 4 to 7 p.m. at 1322 Clinton Ave., according to a community announcement. Through a partnership between the American Legion post and the St. Clair Women’s League, local veterans will receive dinner at no charge. In past years, the partnership has provided complimentary meals to about 90 veterans. Presentations will begin at 6 p.m. and include Quilts of Valor and the presentation of the St. Clair Women’s League’s 2026 Volunteer Extraordinaire Award. The league presents the award annually to a local volunteer recognized for giving time, talents and compassion to improve the lives of others, according to the announcement. The honor recognizes someone whose dedication has made a lasting difference in the community, often without seeking recognition. The Salute to Veterans dinner is open to the public.
