5/28/13 - A special Flag Day event aims to raise funds for a veterans monument enhancement project. A project is underway to raise funds and renovate the Livingston County Veterans Monument in downtown Howell. Community members are encouraged to support the project and pay tribute to those who served by making a donation on Flag Day. Dr. Thomas Kellogg recently announced that he will match all donations made at the event, up to $10,000. The match is made possible through the June & Edward Kellogg Foundation. Bricks are also available for purchase to pay lasting tribute to particular veterans in someoneâs life. The engraved paving stones will be installed in the "Ring of Honor" portion of the memorial. Any bricks purchased at the Flag Day event will also be matched. Donations can be dropped off at Dr. Kelloggâs office located at 12580 Byron Road between Grand River and M-59 in Howell on Friday, June 14th from noon to 5pm. (JK)
