November is here and once again our hearts and minds turn to those who have served and are still serving our country.

The Peabody Public Library is pleased to host the 7th annual Salute to Veterans Celebration on November 8 at 2 p.m. at Indian Springs Middle School.

Have you ever been part of putting together or opening a time capsule? What did you put in, or what did you discover when one was opened? In a way, our recordings of veterans’ stories are like opening a time capsule. Some of the veterans even share artifacts and pictures with us. This year we will be opening those time capsules. We will be displaying items that could be considered if placing a time capsule for that era – not only military items, but things used on the home front as well.

This year, the 38th Infantry Brass Quintet will be providing music for us. They have volunteered to come from Indianapolis to help us celebrate.

Faith Christian Academy students will be participating to lead us in the National Anthem and the Pledge of Allegiance.

Please be our guest for this important tribute to our military heroes.
