“A nation that does not honor its heroes
will not long endure.”
Abraham Lincoln
Dear Members,
As we approach Veterans Day, the Southside Businessmen’s Club proudly pauses to honor the brave men and woman who have served our great nation. Their courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment to defending our freedoms represents the very values upon which our club was founded back in 1932.
For over nine decades, the SBMC has stood for service, leadership and community and on this special day we celebrate those who embody these principles through military service. To all our members who have worn the uniform and to the families who have supported them we say thank you!
I invite all our members to please join me this Tuesday November 11, as we honor our veterans and participate in this year’s Veterans Day parade.
Thank you for your service and God Bless America.
Ken Petsch
2025 President
