Lancaster Inns Open Their Doors To Vets
Lancaster, PA: Just how do you thank those who put themselves in the line of danger, risking their lives so that we enjoy ours in freedom?
Waving flags and attending Fourth of July parades don’t seem like enough, so when the innkeepers of the Authentic Bed and Breakfasts of Lancaster County Association heard of B & B’s For Vets (http://www.bnbsforvets.org/index.html), they jumped at the chance to help.
On Wednesday, November 10, innkeepers all over the country will open their doors and invite vets to stay a night “on the house” in observance of Veteran’s Day.
The Lancaster association boasts 41 inns located throughout the Lancaster County. Some bed and breakfasts are romantic; others cater to families or accept pets. Several inns are historic mansions, while others have been built specifically for the B & B traveler. And each room within a B & B tends to be very different too, for creative innkeepers have a way with decorating. But no matter which inn a vet picks, he or she is sure to encounter friendly hosts, clean and comfortable surroundings and a hearty breakfast.
Quoting Association President Dave Harvey, “It seems a small way to thank our service men and women for all they do.”
The program was started in 2009 by the West Virginia B&B Association (formerly called MABB) and this year has expanded to include over 35 states, a Canadian province and more than 200 Inns.
Please note that this offer will require military ID and is available for all military – those serving now or those who have served, as well as their spouse.
So if you’re a vet, don’t delay – this is a great way to enjoy a little getaway, and to give others a tangible way to express their gratitude for your service.
