Another Great Connecticut Tradition began Saturday, November 11th as Danbury Harley Davidson/Buell, Millennium Dental of Brookfield and Valley Dodge of New Milford team up with Don Clady and Connecticut Cruise News for the First Annual Salute to Our Veterans.

Veteran motorcyclist and non motorcyclist alike, from all over the state and parts of New York State, join in this all new celebration. Veterans from all wars, active duty military personnel and all branches of the militaries were represented.

All with a common goal, “A Salute to Our Veterans”.

“We wanted to do something different, unlike other publications which sell ads to businesses or events that have a registration fee”. “We wanted a non monetary, non sponsored Salute to the Veterans”. Don Clady said.

After approaching the owners of Danbury Harley Davidson/Buell, Millennium Dental of Brookfield and Valley Dodge of New Milford, the event was put together, with only one thing in mind, “Our Veterans!”

Danbury Harley Davidson supplied coffee, bangles and cookies for the veterans in the morning as Connecticut Cruise News provided the music for the day and after a short Veterans Ride to Millennium Dental in Brookfield, Millennium Dental treated all the veterans, friends and family
members to hot dogs, hamburgers, soda and other snacks for lunch.

Finishing the day with another short tribute ride to Valley Dodge in New Milford, we were happy to have welcomed hundreds of veterans throughout the day.
