Independent seeking submissions for Veterans Day section
As Americans, we owe a great deal to our veterans. The Woodburn Independent is paying
tribute to those who have served their country and everyone is invited to join in.
Do you have a family member who has served in the military? Send the newspaper a
photo of your veteran family member along with a message and we will print these in the
Nov. 11 issue. This is your chance to publicly thank your family member for their service
to this country.
To make it easy, email your photo and message to Editor Lindsay Keefer, lkeefer@
woodburnindependent.com. They can also be mailed or hand delivered to the Woodburn
Independent at 650 N. First St., Woodburn, OR 97071.
Please be sure to include the name and military branch of your family member. Please
keep messages short. When submitting your photo and message, please include a
telephone number in case we have any questions.
