Colorado Deals and Freebies for Vets on Veterans Day Tomorrow

Nov 10, 2022, 5:01 PM

In my opinion, veterans of the U.S. military should get deals and freebies everyday of the year, but unfortunately that isn’t how it works. However,  for one day each year, Veterans Day, they do get a little well-deserved break. Tomorrow (November 11th) we celebrate America’s heroes, and a bunch of places around Colorado are pitching in to help make the day special for those who have served.
