While our office doesn’t handle VA benefits, we often get calls about them. We always refer folks to the experts who can help service members and their families understand the benefits they’ve earned. Mark your calendars for an opportunity to meet with the Team at Catawba County Veterans Services on September 19th. Two sessions will be held at 2 PM and 5 PM—perfect for getting your questions answered and learning more about your VA benefits. If you or someone you know needs assistance, this is a great place to start! #Veterans #VABenefits #CatawbaCounty #VeteranSupport #SaveTheDate

Just a teaser, but we've got something exciting in the works! In partnership with @Catawba County Economic Development Corporation and the @Chamber of Catawba County, HKY4Vets is organizing a series of in-person and webinar events focused on retaining, attracting, and best supporting military talent. Our target audience includes HR professionals, upper management, C-Suite executives, and anyone who wants to build a strong foundation for better working with existing veteran co-workers or future employees. We’ll kick things off with an introductory in-person event this fall, followed by insightful webinars every couple of months. Stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks! #VeteranTalent #HKY4Vets #MilitaryHiring #StayTuned #EmployeeRetention

Our @HKY4Vets Team had a fantastic time at the Hickory Young Professionals LeaderCon2024! 🎉 It was a great opportunity to connect with new faces and introduce our mission to veterans in the important 20-40 year old demographic. We loved networking alongside our friends from Fairways for Warriors and enjoyed the dynamic speakers. Looking forward to more events like this! #HKY4Vets #LeaderCon2024 #HickoryYoungProfessionals #Veterans #Networking

I was on a family vacation earlier this week to Washington, DC, and you can't help but feel a deep sense of pride and patriotism, knowing you're in the heart of the country that stands as a beacon of hope for the world. Thankful to those that fought for and continue to defend this country. #WashingtonDC #nationalmall #thankourmilitary

"The quality of a place where you choose to live your life shapes everything—your work, your play, your sense of belonging." The City of Hickory continues to invest in its quality of place with the opening of the Aviation Walk, adding another vital connection to the growing network of #greenways and #trails. This new addition not only enhances the City's connectivity but also reflects the broader community’s commitment to livability and making all of Catawba County a great place to live, work, and explore. Whether you're a #veteran or #militaryfamily looking for a welcoming community or someone who values an active lifestyle, local investment in spaces like the Aviation Walk is just one more reason to call this place home. #HKY4Vets #QualityOfPlace #HickoryNC #CommunityInvestment

We really appreciated everyone who came out to our Military Family Night at the Hickory Crawdads! We had a blast throwing out the first pitch (nice fastball from a National Guardswoman's son), enjoying hot dogs, dodging foul balls (might have caught one!), and just having a great time at LP Frans Stadium with other military families. Special thanks to the Hickory Crawdads leadership and staff for being so accommodating and helping us organize this event annually. The only downside – the 'Dads didn't come away with the win in a rain-shortened game. Keep an eye out for our next HKY4Vets Professional Connections event likely coming up in October! #MilitaryFamilyNight #HickoryCrawdads #HKY4Vets #Community #VeteranSupport

Tune in every Monday to WHKY for this 7-10 minute segment (airing around 9:15AM). A big thank you to the veteran-owned team at WHKY for this partnership. We look forward to showcasing those who have served and those who support them! #MilitaryMonday #HKY4Vets #WHKY #VeteranSupport #Community
