Members of
the Cumberland Valley Bed and Breakfast Association will join hundreds of inns and
B&Bs throughout the US and Canada in honoring active and retired veterans
with free rooms in recognition of Veteran’s Day.
In a campaign called B&Bs
for Vets, members of the Cumberland Valley Bed and Breakfast Association will
offer over 20 rooms for a complimentary stay for vets on Sunday, November 11, 2012,
This is the THIRD year that
the Cumberland Valley B&B Association has participated in the campaign. Also, some of the member B&Bs have
offered additional discounts.
“We are proud to join
innkeepers across the USA and Canada in honoring active and retired military
veterans by offering a complimentary room(s)”, said Joanne Kenney-Hawver,
innkeeper at the Red Cardinal Bed and Breakfast and secretary of the Cumberland
Valley Bed and Breakfast Association.
“We are delighted that thousands of vets and their families will be
recognized for their commitment to our country. It’s one small we way we can thank them for
the work they have done or are doing”.
“In addition”, said Mrs.
Hawver, “Vets who are lucky enough to participate in this program are treated
like family and will enjoy a great night’s sleep and a hearty breakfast in the
morning”.
The B&Bs for Vets program
started in 2008. The program has grown
in popularity among innkeepers.
Veterans interested in
reserving a room on November 11, 2012 are asked to visit our website: www.cvbednbreakfasts.com
and contact the participating B&B.
Proof of military service will be requested, and all policies of the inn
will be enforced for free stays.
