GENEVA – Nominations for the New York State Senate Veterans’ Hall of Fame are now open! If you would like to nominate a worthy veteran from the six-county Wayne-Finger Lakes region that Senator Helming represents for the prestigious NYS Senate Veterans’ Hall of Fame, please visit helming.nysenate.gov or call her office at 315-568-9816. The deadline to submit the nomination is Wednesday, July 22.
“As the daughter of a U.S. Air Force veteran and the mother-in-law of a current U.S. Army soldier, I have the utmost respect and appreciation for everything that the men and women of our nation’s military have done and continue to do to protect our freedom and our way of life as American citizens. As a New York State Senator, I want to show my gratitude for our veterans by seeking nominations for the New York State Senate Veterans’ Hall of Fame, honoring the nominees around Veterans’ Day, and selecting an inductee for the Hall of Fame. Our veterans contribute so much to our society both in and out of uniform, and they make our communities better places to live. We are fortunate that many of these extraordinary service members make their homes here in the Wayne-Finger Lakes region, and help strengthen our communities and serve as pillars of our region. I strongly encourage local residents to take the time to honor the veterans in their lives by nominating them for the Hall of Fame,” Senator Helming said.
Nominators do not have to live within the 54th Senate District, but nominees must live in Senator Helming’s district. Please note, all nominators will be asked to provide a photo and complete information so that Senator Helming can properly honor each veteran.
Nomination forms are available on Senator Helming’s website, helming.nysenate.gov, and may be submitted electronically. People may also print a paper version of the form and mail it to Senator Helming’s District Office at 425 Exchange St., Geneva, NY 14456. For questions or more information, please contact the District Office at (315) 568-9816.
Senator Helming will recognize all of the Veterans’ Hall of Fame nominees during veterans’ recognition events slated for November to coincide with Veterans Day. Last year, Senator Helming recognized over 100 local veterans at her five ceremonies.
