Pal-O-Mine Equestrian announced it will once again host VetFest at its Islandia farm at 829 Old Nichols Road. VetFest is a free event exclusively for veterans, active-duty service members and their families. Sponsored by the Long Island Veteran Suicide Prevention Coalition, the event will bring more than 40 veterans' resource organizations to Pal-O-Mine’s 13-acre campus, sharing information on services including housing, health care, employment, mental health and addiction support, education, and financial and legal assistance.
Beyond the resource fair, VetFest offers a day of family-friendly fun, with activities including cornhole, farm-themed games, horseshoe painting, musical saddles, a playground, livestock education and more. For more information, visit pal-o-mine.org.
