The Veterans Service Commission of Summit County will honor a selfless local veteran at its annual Veteran of the Year Dinner the third Thursday in October. The VSC has opened the nomination process any qualified veteran volunteer within the Summit County area. Qualified nominees are honorably discharged county residents, who generously serve their communities through veteran’s posts, chapters, non-profit organizations, churches, and the Veterans Administration. The VSC realizes that some veterans serve with no desire to get recognition and/ or receive accolades, however their peers have witnessed their service and desire to see them recognized.
Reservations for the Thursday, October 22, 2026 Veteran of the Year Dinner are sold out. Nomination and reservation forms for the next dinner will be posted here when they become available.
