This year the Duluth Women of Today are joining forces with the Veterans Memorial Hall in sponsoring our 2025 Veterans Day Ceremonies. This year marks the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army, the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Marine Corps. The event will take place on Tuesday, November 11, 2025, in the Great Hall of the DEPOT (506 W. Michigan St). The program will begin promptly at 11 AM and will include an array of patriotic music provided by the Spirit Valley Drum & Bugle Corps., the Superior Senior High School Choir, bag piper Kerry Welch and the National Anthem will be sung by Aalyiah Gebhardt. The guest speaker will be Bob Stephens, 10-year U.S. Navy Veteran, and regular member of the American Legion Hall Post #71. The Duluth Honor Guard will post colors and will close out the Veterans Day ceremony with a Rifle Volley Salute and Taps. Afterward, light lunch/refreshments provided by the Duluth Women of Today will be served in the Great Hall.
Following the Veteran’s Day Ceremony lunch, at 12:30 PM, the PBS North Documentary, “United in Service” will be shown with an introduction by director Keith Hopkins.
The entire event is free and open to the public! Parking in the ramp on the west side of the DEPOT will be complimentary from 9am to 3pm.

· The Women of Today is volunteer, service organization. In 1950, a group of dedicated women formed the Mrs. Jaycees of Minnesota with a mission of community service. For the past forty (40) years, since July 1985 we became known as the Minnesota Women of Today. Since that time, Women of Today has grown to include members in many states throughout the nation. Our three areas of focus are Community Service, Personal and Professional Growth, and Fellowship. We are non-political, non-religious, and open to all women and men over 18 who are ready to connect, grow, and make a difference. Explore a chapter near you. There’s something for everyone, and your ideas are always welcome!
