The Brainerd Veterans of Foreign Wars post reminds everyone that July 4th Independence Day celebrates the freedom we enjoy today.  It didn’t come without sacrifice.  We should never forget the men and women service members who put their lives on the line to ensure our safety every day.  Active and retired veterans serve our community while they are members of the Brainerd VFW and Auxiliary.  Remember to thank a veteran anytime you see one.  Learn more at BrainerdVFW. org

​June 4, 2022:  The Brainerd Color Guard led the Crosby and Brainerd Independence Day parades.  Lots of onlookers and applause as they marched by.  Fireworks were at 10:15 pm that night.
