The Republican Party of Lee County will host a Veterans Day Breakfast Fundraiser on Saturday, Nov. 11, from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. at the Southwest Florida Event Center, 11515 Bonita Beach Road SE, Bonita Springs.

Tickets for the breakfast are $50 each, which will be used to create multiple scholarships for local high school graduates going into the U.S. Armed Forces.

U.S. Sen. Rick Scott, who served in the U.S. Navy, will be the keynote speaker, along with Lee County Commissioner Cecil Pendergrass and Michael Thompson, Chairman of the Lee County Republican Party.

“Supporting our youth in their dream of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is our duty as community leaders,” said Chairman Michael Thompson in a prepared statement. “We need to help those patriotic youths in Lee County who want to join the United States Military. Not all students are able to meet scholarship requirements for a variety of reasons. The Lee County GOP are helping to bridge that gap for those students interested in joining the military.”

Tickets can be purchased at the Lee County GOP website, LeeGOP.org.

For more information, contact Chairman Thompson at 239-936-8779.
