You are just a few clicks away from the local organizations that are here to serve you. Obviously, the major players in our community are the VFW, American Legion, the Navy League and the Marine Corps League. But, they are not the only groups who are dedicated to serving our veterans.
In addition to them, we have the Daughters of the American Revolution, Disabled American Veterans, the Blue Star Moms, the Gold Star Moms and Horses Helping Heros.
We can call on Team Red, White & Blue, a local group that provides services to veterans. They also have answered the call for volunteers for our fundraisers. Let’s not forget Your Home Assistant who serves our seniors and our veterans.
If you know of a group who should be noted on this website, please contact the webmaster. Each organization is here to help you with your issues with the office of Veterans Affairs or any other need you may have.

Are you familiar with our Elk Grove Regional Veterans Memorial
The Elk Grove Regional Veterans Memorial is located within Elk Grove Park 9950 Elk Grove Florin Road to the north of the White Diamond ball field. Oscar O’con, U.S. Army and Marine veteran, has led the Elk Grove Regional Veterans Memorial project for the past 14 years. This beautiful memorial in Elk Grove Park is dedicated to living and deceased military members who have served their communities with honor throughout the region. Engraved dedication pavers are available for purchase to honor both living and deceased members of the military. You can learn more about placing a brick or granite paver at the memorial in the name of a veteran on this page.
What about those military member banners and streets named after veterans ?
Many of you have seen and asked about the military member banners along Civic Center Drive, Bruceville Road and Elk Grove Blvd and wondered who at the Legion to contact to have your son or daughter or your dad or your mom honored with a banner for their service.
Well, that is another reason I love Elk Grove. Those banners are put there by our very supportive City, not the veteran’s organizations. To learn more, click here. It only costs about $150 to have the banner made and placed. They are there for 1 year. After the year, the banners are presented to the veterans family.
Also, did you know that the City of Elk Grove often names streets after veterans. Yes, they do. You can learn more on the City of Elk Grove Website.
You can read more about the City’s support of veterans in the November-December issue of the Elk Grove City Newsletter as well.
