RIT's 12th Annual Veterans Day Breakfast
Held on Veterans Day each November, it is free and open to the entire community. It is our “salute” to veterans and their families, our way of saying thank you for your service, thank you for your sacrifice.
Dr. Barry Culhane, RIT Retiree and Vietnam-era veteran has said, “The breakfast is a way to acknowledge the service of all veterans affiliated with RIT and special guests from the Greater Rochester community who work to serve veterans and their families every day.”
